Even though people may be well known they hold in their hearts the emotions of a simple person for the moments that are the most important of those we know on earth: birth marriage and death.
There are as is known insects that die in the moment of fertilization. So it is with all joy: life's highest most splendid moment of enjoyment is accompanied by death.
Those who have the strength and the love to sit with a dying patient in the silence that goes beyond words will know that this moment is neither frightening nor painful but a peaceful cessation of the functioning of the body.
Dating is just awkward moments and one person wants more than the other. It's just that constant strangeness. I think it's a very real thing.
There's been times when I've had heartbreaking moments and I'm like 'I can't believe you said that ' or 'I can't believe you did that'. And it hurts it still hurts and it'll always hurt but I've never had somebody that I truly cared about just walk out on me whether it was a boyfriend or an aunt mom or dad.
When my father died in my arms it had such a profound affect on me that at that very moment when my dad passed I realized that I needed to face my own fears.
The moment my doctor told me I went silent. My mum and dad were with me then we all went to pieces. I was saying No I've got my flight to Sydney in two hours. I'm getting on a plane.
Becoming a dad was the proudest moment of my life. Playing football does not even compare.
I think the moments that are difficult for anybody are when you see what your life could be if only you had the courage to take the steps needed.
That's what acting is - it's about... having the courage to allow your audience into the private moments of your characters' lives.
Courage! I have shown it for years think you I shall lose it at the moment when my sufferings are to end?
The only courage that matters is the kind that gets you from one moment to the next.
And I love that even in the toughest moments when we're all sweating it - when we're worried that the bill won't pass and it seems like all is lost - Barack never lets himself get distracted by the chatter and the noise. Just like his grandmother he just keeps getting up and moving forward... with patience and wisdom and courage and grace.
All of us have moments in our lives that test our courage. Taking children into a house with a white carpet is one of them.
The courage of life is often a less dramatic spectacle than the courage of a final moment but it is no less a magnificent mixture of triumph and tragedy.
I'm not geeky but I have my geeky corky moments and then I've got some aspects of cool in me I guess.
I think that was a moment of cool panic there.
A lot of those little things that I really like doing are just moments of cool articulation just little moments of phrasing that probably go over everybody's head.
You get to actually see the music video on the TV in the pilot and we have the soundtrack playing at this big party. I thought that was sort of a cool moment to actually have the A-Ha video is pretty cool.
My strangest media moment a photo session they all had dressed up like 50 gangsters. That was pretty cool. We have to get some more of those kind of photos sometimes.
I'd love to be an artist that's multifaceted. At the moment I am not. But wouldn't that be cool if I was like 'Yeah let me pull out my guitar and play you a song.' I would adore that. I am so far not gifted in that way. But I am a very hard worker and a very determined person so who knows?
But acting is very much a profession that is you're hot one moment and not the next - and that is totally cool. I think that's what I find most fascinating and most exciting about it - is that it can be gone in a puff of smoke.
There's been a lot of really cool stuff that's happened to me throughout my career and I remember everything but I don't think I savored every moment of it like I should have or like I do now.
Everything that's cool that happens I look at my wife and I say 'We need to enjoy this moment right here! This is really special!'
