I don't know what I'm really good at. I'm really good at sittin' by the pool. I have to work at that. I'm really bad at auditioning.

I'm the son of an everyman. My father is a teacher. He teaches physics at a boys' school in Sydney.

My trumpeting sounds like a goose farting in the fog.

I am a big fan of vampires. I've always been obsessed with the genre, and the beautiful romanticism and erotic kind of nature of the immortal being, the undead who lives on human blood.

The mecca of filmmaking in the world just so happens to be in America. It's quite simply a case of us just going where the work is.

To have a friend and a comrade as your co-star, especially in a romantic comedy, is really important. It gives you the room. It's easier to give yourself and the other person permission to play.

I really enjoy doing charity, for a good cause, it’s like the least I can do, I really enjoy that stuff. I enjoy giving back.

Losing my anonymity in this world I think is something that I find terrifying.

I do not think I'm a great talent. I think I'm a medium talent, but I think I understand the business and enjoy the business.

The country was in peril; he was jeopardizing his traditional rights of freedom and independence by daring to exercise them.

When you understand the Atonement, then you understand the joy of being rescued.

Never stop working on your statue until the divine glory of virtue shines out on you, until you see self-mastery enthroned upon its holy seat.

You have to use what you have to get what you want.

I am not a perfectionist, but still I seek perfection. I am not a great romantic, but yet I yearn 4 affection
