Im an ardent Trekkie and I look forward to the United Federation of Planets.

In summer winter rain or sun, it's good to be on horseback.

I'd probably say to my younger self, get yourself a whole collection of lawyers. Which is what I have now.

Punk is the way of those who are unable to express themselves, but they aren't dangerous; at worst, they may kill their audience.

I think I'm a good father, but that's taken a lifetime of experience.

I'd probably say to my younger self, get yourself a whole collection of lawyers. Which is what I have now. I don't have any friends; I just have lawyers.

I'm also good at meditation. It involves doing nothing and everything at the same time.

Love is... what makes a weak man brave and a king step off his throne. Good times, bad times, easy times, tough times, it comes in an instant and lasts three days after forever. That's what love is.

I'm just so grateful and astonished that I'm still respected and listened to.

I thought I'd join the RAF and become a wing commander. I realised this wasn't possible, although I do have a pilot's licence.

While you're worrying about becoming famous, there is someone out there putting in work and not wasting a second of their time. Which person will you be?

This moment is history.

There is no happiness in having or in getting but only in giving.

The first foundation for the creation of authority is always provided by popularity.

I'm not that ambitious any more. I just like my privacy. I wish I really wasn't talked about at all.

I believe joy is a spiritual practice we have to work at.

I remember watching Jodie Foster in Contact, and that kind of opened my eyes.

I would certainly choose my jobs depending on the actions of the character. I won't do anything that has to do with child abuse or women's abuse.

I had always been kind of obsessed with making a home of my own and was always drawing rooms that I wanted to live in, down to pictures on the wall and the faces that would be in the photographs.

The well of your incompleteness runs deep, but make the effort to look away from yourself and to look toward Him.
