jobs cities guy
I'm not a city kind of guy. I'm happiest when I'm tromping through the woods. That's why I don't live in Los Angeles. Being physically away from Hollywood probably loses me a few jobs, but the best ones seek me out.
baseball boys years
Baseball should be the only thing on an eight year old boy's mind.
great-things parting
I don't get any parts I don't get offered. There are lots of great things out there I would like to do that I don't get offered.
moving athlete character
My thing about looking good is that it should be the character. If I'm playing a character who's concerned about his body - an athlete, say - I'll get in shape. If I'm playing a character who doesn't or wouldn't, I don't. I almost never get in shape for a movie, even though I know it would be a good career move.
tvs these-days
There's certainly more work for me in TV these days.
pants short-pants auras
I'd wear clogs, short pants and ladies' bracelets. I created this aura for myself.
girl house sneak
I'd sneak out of the house to meet girls at 3:30 a.m.
laughing
Make them laugh, and then make them listen.
thinking people my-family
I think there's a down-to-earthness with Midwesterners and with people from the Midlands - which is where my family is from - in Ireland.
nice levels tables
I like the level of fame that I have. You get nice tables in restaurants sometimes, but fame isn't something that I find comfortable.
interesting roles
I get to do interesting roles and make a living.
Money is just something to be circulated.
liam occasions my-friends
I loved working with Meryl Streep twice and I've gotten to work with my friend Liam Neeson on several occasions.
fire focus everyday
Really, most of us just focus on what's in front of us. We're too busy putting out the fires of everyday life.
