I think we're getting to the point where everyone's getting fat and everyone's getting allergic or claims to be allergic to something and people can't walk from their front door to their car without a bottle of water in their hand because they have to hydrate every three and half steps.

I've got CDs in my car listening all the time for that next song because everybody's looking.

I look away at car crashes and I know people who look away at car crashes because it makes us uncomfortable to watch other people in pain.

I want a Mini-Cooper because it's fuel efficient emissions efficient and all that stuff. It's small and better for the environment. I think that will be my next car.

If you are a writer you locate yourself behind a wall of silence and no matter what you are doing driving a car or walking or doing housework you can still be writing because you have that space.

I recorded a song called I Fall to Pieces and I was in a car wreck. Now I'm worried because I have a brand-new record and it's called Crazy!

I don't run a car have never run a car. I could say that this is because I have this extremely tender environmentalist conscience but the fact is I hate driving.

I don't listen to the radio very much but that could be because I don't have a car.

Having played many roles of scientific intellect I do have an empathy for that world. It's been hard on me because flying the Enterprise for seven years in Star Trek and sitting in Cerebro in X-men has led people to believe that I know what I'm talking about. But I'm still trying to work out how to operate the air conditioning unit on my car.

To this day I am the least materialistic person I know because my father didn't raise me to just go out and buy this or that car. The only reason I wanted to make money as an actor was because I'm passionate about food!

The first real thought that I had of something that I might do was to write for car magazines because I always had a car thing.

Design can never be an ultimate explanation for anything. It can only be a proximate explanation. A plane or a car is explained by a designer but that's because the designer himself the engineer is explained by natural selection.

I rememeber one time we were getting ready to go to South America and everything was packed up and in the car ready to go and I hid and I was crying because I really did not want to go I wanted to play. I did not want to go.

Well I always had a chauffer because I have never driven a car in my life. I still can't drive.

We're just into toys whether it's motorcycles or race cars or computers. I've got the Palm Pilot right here with me I've got the world's smallest phone. Maybe it's just because I'm still a big little kid and I just love toys you know?

I think we have to act like stars because it is expected of us. So we drive our big cars and live in our smart houses.

Perhaps people and kids especially are spoiled today because all the kids today have cars it seems. When I was young you were lucky to have a bike.

I don't do something necessarily to make a big profit or because it's a logical business decision.

The rest of the world cares about how we conduct our affairs because they then take that lead. We're the only leader in the world today. Some are wishing us well others think that we're down and are not going to get back up again but they are all watching with great interest to see how we conduct our business over the next couple of years.

In recent years I've been writing because I'm fortunate enough to work in the world of food television to travel and taste and learn about cooking from the best chefs in the business.

Most small business owners are not particularly sophisticated business people. That's not a criticism they're passionate about cutting hair or cooking food and that's why they got in the business not because they have an MBA.

Independent film is almost nonexistent right now because all the distributers that used to love to put out these little art films are all out of business right now because it costs so much to open a movie.

But the reason I became why I wanted to be in the business was because there was Midnight Cowboy.

I've managed to keep a clear head and remain sane in this business because I remain a kid off-camera.
