I just want to do the best possible job with everything that I do. But I'm far more concerned with being a good father as opposed to being a good actor because that's what's really going to matter.
As soon as I ended up being incarcerated, I said, you know, this is not the life for me.
Well, I would love it if they could take all the guns away. Unfortunately, you can’t do that so you hope that good people in the world have them to protect the people who can’t protect themselves,
I've always looked at my career as an athlete would look at his: I won't play forever. Some don't know when to walk away, but the smart ones do.
Being a Catholic is the most important aspect of my life.
I don't want to let my guard down and feel too comfortable. If you become complacent, you start feeling entitled. I'm ready to go dig ditches if I have to. Whatever I gotta do to provide for my family. Whatever I gotta do to make sure that I do the best possible job at whatever wonderful opportunities I've been handed.
I've always wanted to be in the health and wellness business. I try to encourage people to live a healthy lifestyle.
And I tell you, having girls has made me a much better man. I have friends who are fathers, but they only have boys, and they have the same attitude toward women they always had, you know? And I don't play that... My girls, you mess with them? I will bury you underground.
I never lie. I believe everything I say, so its not a lie.
It's all about love and how we are all connected.
I work as hard as anybody will ever work and I like that. That's why I've been successful and that is when I feel good about myself. If I do my damnedest and don't succeed, I feel good about the effort.
As far as I'm concerned, there's no job more important on the planet than being a mom.
Clooney is just a pretty boy, man, and that's it, OK? I carried him on my back long enough. I'm on my own.
Look, if you're driving down the highway at 120 miles an hour, I'd rather be behind the wheel than in the backseat.
