Men and women aren't too dissimilar.

The point is that when I see a sunset or a waterfall or something, for a split second it's so great, because for a little bit I'm out of my brain, and it's got nothing to do with me.

I always say that the times in my life when I've been happiest are the times when I've seen, like, a sunset.

I can handle the craziness some of the time, maybe most of the time. But I know I can't handle it all of the time.

I'm reminded of who I am, who I was, and who I'm supposed to be.

The comic book world is so dangerous, you know what I mean? You say one thing and people - they're ravenous - they are very opinionated fans. But they're great fans.

I decided to make 'Captain America' because I realized I wasn't doing the film because it terrified me. You can't make decisions based on fear.

I am single and not looking to be in a relationship.

Blue. My God! I'm so blue that if I were a dog, I'd sit on my haunches and howl and howl and howl...

It is sad and wrong to be so dependent for the life of my life on any human being as I am on you; but I cannot by any force of logic cure myself at this date, when it has become second nature.

A mind not set on God is given to wandering and lacks the quality of a temple of worship.

It is only the oppressed who, by freeing themselves, can free their oppressors.

That's the way the system works. Sometimes you get the bear, sometimes the bear gets you.

I would describe my style of songwriting as classic. I learned very early on and have stuck to the core principles of song structure regardless of which genre I'm writing in.
