I had Courtney Love's left bosom out of her dress on my plate in front of me. It was extraordinary. I didn't know where to look.

It's appalling that there should be hunger anywhere, but particularly in a country like America, where there is also such great wealth.

I love moving. I love new houses. I'm always looking for somewhere else.

It's very hard to get the dynamics where two people can stimulate each other and be happy.

Go to an audition where they lie to you. Thank you very much.

We look for the privilege to have our influence in propelling the reason for national protection and national solidarity. In any case, absolutely, there can be no obvious national solidarity where one-tenth of the populace is denied their essential rights as American residents.

We seek the right to play our part in advancing the cause of national defense and national unity. But certainly, there can be no true national unity where one-tenth of the population is denied their basic rights as American citizens.

Shortly after I turned 13, Child Welfare took me into care. I was sent to a residential centre where girls with behavioural problems were 'evaluated'. My time there comes back to me now only in flashes of smells, images and sounds.

Many nights, I longed for home. But it occurred to me as I struggled for a feeling of comfort and safety: I have no idea where home is.

To give thanks in solitude is enough. Thanksgiving has wings and goes where it must go. Your prayer knows much more about it than you do.

Being Irish is very much a part of who I am. I take it everywhere with me.

I like to go to parties where I know everyone. How are you going to have fun with people you don't know?

Easter is reflecting upon suffering for one thing but it also reflects upon Jesus and his non compliance in the face of great authority where he holds to his truth - so there's two stories there.

We never really had any kind of a Christmas. This is one part where my memory fails me completely.

I'm sure most of us remember being a kid and you have all of this endless time where two weeks before Christmas feels like ten years. I used to go to bed to try and go to sleep to try and make it go faster.

The main reason Santa is so jolly is because he knows where all the bad girls live.

Every man should have laws of his own I should think commandments of his own for every man has a different set of circumstances wherein to work - or worry.

Actresses can get outrageously precious about the way they look. That's not what life's about. If you starve yourself to the point where your brain cells shrivel you will never do good work. And if you're overly conscious of your arms flapping in the wind how can you look the other actor in the eye to respond to them?

Confidence doesn't come out of nowhere. It's a result of something... hours and days and weeks and years of constant work and dedication.

I learned that the only way you are going to get anywhere in life is to work hard at it. Whether you're a musician a writer an athlete or a businessman there is no getting around it. If you do you'll win - if you don't you won't.

My wife whenever I'd go off to work and I'd be kind of anxious she'll say 'Remember have fun.' Oh I forgot thanks for the reminder. Because sometimes we do forget. We take it all too seriously and there's a lot of joy to be had wherever you are.

I stayed away from mathematics not so much because I knew it would be hard work as because of the amount of time I knew it would take hours spent in a field where I was not a natural.

People are not perfect... very often the relationships that are strongest are those where people have worked through big crises but they've had to work through them. So the challenge to us is to work through that.

I used to work in a fire hydrant factory. You couldn't park anywhere near the place.
