Looking back on my achievements, it is fair to say that I am extremely proud of what I have done and accomplished so far.

I'm proud to be paying taxes in the United States. The only thing is - I could be just as proud for half the money

As corny as it may sound, my true goal was to crack the Americana market.

You know, it sounds corny, but I believe in myself. And I work hard.

I know how I like to be treated, so I always start by saying, 'Could you give me a moment of your time, I know you're very busy,' and usually, they will.

Married and divorced, three beautiful daughters, two in college. The other one is 16, lives with her mom. I'm 46, I've worked for the Post Office for 18 years, seven facilities in three states.

I'd just hit the Billboard thing, and I had a good feeling. About a month ago, I received a call that said I was in the running, that I'd made the final 25. So I just wanted to place.

They have a baby grand piano, but no one in the family plays. They have shelves of books they've never read, and the tension between the couples was so thick it nearly choked us.

Life's most beautiful and inspiring moments occur at 3am, just prowling, looking for nothing but always finding something.

And the only sign of life is the ticking of the pen, introducing characters to memory like old friends.

If I wasn’t mated, and wasn’t straight, and you were a Mage, and we hadn’t made that pact for friendship’s sake, I would totally screw you.

Exaggeration of every kind is as essential to journalism as it is to dramatic art, for the object of journalism is to make events go as far as possible.

you ever been trapped in a world where you're everyone's worst nightmare?

The mind is still there even when thoughts are not.

I don't love acting; I love chocolate.

What I do as an art form is try to make people feel good and if I do try to make them feel bad, it's for a reason. There's something I am trying to say.

People like Chris Nolan are shooting isolated sequences in IMAX. Those cameras are the size of a Volkswagen.
