I like directing. It takes a lot out of you, but I'd like to do it again - I just have to find a story I want to tell.

I've made three studio albums and one live one with my brother. It's melodic singer-songwriter acoustic-rock music.

I'd love to be a pop idol. Of course, my groupies are now between 40 and 50.

A good director creates an environment which gives the actor the encouragement to fly.

I have a natural swagger.

There are two types of actors: those who say they don't want to be famous and those who are liars.

Before Footloose, the things I'd done weren't cute. In Diner I was an alcoholic.

Any idiot can get laid when they're famous. That's easy. It's getting laid when you're not famous that takes some talent.

The greatest justice in life is that your vision and looks tend to go simultaneously.

I always wanted, and still aspire, to be something more than just one thing, just one performance.

Everybody's got bills to pay. Sometimes you see people just go straight for the money, and that's disappointing.

The swallow that hibernates underwater is a creature called yearning.

Why fight a battle alone when you can fight it victoriously with God on the lead?

Buy the ticket, take the ride.

To bring anything into your life, imagine that it's already there.

I'd rather walk than drive a car. In Vancouver, where I am from, you can get to just about anywhere you need to go on foot. Even if it's raining I'll go out for a stroll. I just love that.

The best thing that ever happened to me was losing last year in the Finals. I had to change.

I am often asked which picture is my favorite. This is like asking a mother which child she likes the most.

Lose who may-I still can say, Those who win heaven, blest are they!

A quality such as self-esteem is a result of practicing good human relations.

There is no necessity for a technique or formula for meditation. Inner feeling, or inner knowing, is the silent voice of inspiration.
