Just so we're clear, I'm not zen by any stretch of the imagination. However, what I've read about change being the only constant is a concept that I can grab onto and have used quite a lot.

I have a lot of appetites and try to revel in almost everything, so inspiration can even come from a well-appointed submarine sandwich, you know?

I'm so blessed to have been a working actor. If they still would like to make me a superstar, I'm available, but so far, being a working actor has been great. It's taken me everywhere.

I think 20 years of experience really came to fruition and enabled me to be able to play Cotton Marcus.

I think any actor will tell you that they always assume they'll never work again, so every job becomes important.

You make a horror film that's not very good. You'd be joining a long line, in a long video aisle, of stuff that doesn't work.

Love is hanging out at the ocean, watching my wife and little girls play in the sand. I know, I threw up a little too, but it's true.

I also swim four to five times a week, and once you get rolling into a rhythm of breathing and movement, your mind can truly untether, which I find so refreshing.

Actors and preachers are people who stand up on stage and have no problem talking and they have no problem saying, "Listen to me. Follow me. I know what I'm talking about."

At some point in my career, I was thinking, "Why am I not a star? Why am I not Brad Pitt? Why am I not Tom Cruise?"

When jobs come up, like a low-budget film like The Last Exorcism, you say yes and you see where it takes you.

Reading sparks writing.

Great men dare the giant of impossibilities

No one has a right to hoard things which he cannot use.

I have Tom Ford, Gucci, Saint Laurent, McQueen, and odd pieces that Ive just acquired because I happened to have come across them and felt they have some historical resonance.

I always say expect the unexpected!

I've made forty-three pictures. Naturally I'm adorable in all of them.

I believe that it is sometimes less difficult to wake up and feel that I am alone when I really am, than to wake up with someone else and be lonely.

But I don't sit down at dinner and have clever ideas.

intricately and intriguingly woven, lots of fun, and extremely thought provoking.
