I also have this kind of fascination with Don Quixote, kind of like wanting something you're not going to get. I like that a lot.

I grew up in Minnesota.

Wait a minute! I'm not interested in agriculture. I want the military stuff. During a briefing military stuff in which officials began telling him about missile silos.

I grew up in Minnesota and everyone is so nice there. It is like Fargo. Everyone's so chipper and you make friends just grocery shopping. We kill each other with kindness.

I don't really necessarily think I'm a funny guy, but I like the opportunity to take on something that I don't feel I'm the best at doing.

I love everything Minnesota.

Everyone should walk across the Brooklyn Bridge. I did it three days in a row because it was one of the most exhilarating experiences I've ever had. The view is breathtaking.

I'm a much better singer than actor, which doesn't really say a whole lot.

What I love doing is taking my dog for runs.

I tend to go for women with common sense. Being down to earth stands out more than looks.

I don't know anything about this engagement stuff. I never thought I was going to get engaged.

Reading Plato should be easy

Three years after starting, by physically doing everything from raising the finance to special effects, we'd finally cobbled together our low budget film.

If you don't believe in what you're selling, neither will your prospect.

No one had to impose my enemies on me. I selected them myself. I didn't avoid them: I pointed them out, marked them, attacked them.

Perhaps the most typically American place in America.

All my life I had believed that unless I was perfect I would not be loved.

One is not always happy when one is good; but one is always good when one is happy.

I can't understand why people in Scotland rave about Darren Fletcher.

For was that all, she thought bleakly, that love ever was? Something that saved one from loneliness? A sort of insurance policy against not counting?

And I don't really like golf. I know a lot of English footballers play, but I know that if I go with the club to play, sooner or later I will end up trying to smash the ball with my foot.
