I actually got hurt in a steel factory in 1985 and so that changed my life. I went to a junior college and that's where I discovered acting.

Fame is an odd thing. It bugs you a little bit, but it's really not bad.

I was a pretty disruptive student in class in school. I had a hard time paying attention. I had what they call A.D.D. now, back then I was just a hyper kid.

Acting may be how I've made my living, but music has always been my passion.

I'll be a little bummed out if I make it to my 70s and didn't have a kid. I have two dogs and I know how much I love them. I would like to love and raise a kid.

I discovered that I act because I really love to act. I don't act because maybe it will get me a magazine cover or that I can get on a talk show.

I'm sick of playing romantic leads.

I thought if I wanted people to take me seriously, I needed to act serious and not reveal too much of my private life so people could seriously accept me in different things.

I feel like a visitor just about everywhere.

I don't want to slam the cute and fun movies out there, but it gets old.

Look, I've done some low-budget movies and I've done some big-budget movies, and the big-budget movies were always kind of disorganized.

As relates to life on Earth, the fine structure constant determines how solar radiation is absorbed in our atmosphere, and it also applies to how photosynthesis works in plants.

Listening is two part, attention and thinking. The latter is what a lot of us don't do

To die alone, on rock under sun at the brink of the unknown, like a wolf, like a great bird, seems to me very good fortune indeed.

Above all else show the data.

Art has something to do with the arrest of attention in the midst of distraction.

My video game character is a bit better looking than me, actually. I don't think he has to worry about his hair getting messed up.

The person who takes no chances generally has to take whatever is left when others are through choosing.

There never was a woman so ill-suited to public life as I am. I have had to whip myself, as it were, into society, and the loneliness of it all has been terrific.

Through the triumphs there has come a greater confidence and through the challenges has come a greater clarity of purpose.

I love Krispy Kreme donuts, but doesn't the thought of cream that's crispy just churn your stomach?
