I consider a day without running a crappy day. When I don't get to run, I am a grump, but some days my schedule just doesn't allow me to.
I just can't seem to make myself care about what I look like when I am working out.
I don't care if people think I am an overactor, as long as they enjoy what I do. People who think that would call Van Gogh an overpainter.
I do like a healthy dose of adrenalin, but my character is more rounded. I am not timid; I like excitement.
I was born in a dream. I woke up in a wakeful dream. I am living in a dream. Life is a miracle in a dream.
I am not a politician, and I will never be, and I say that with absolute conviction.
I would gladly do it but I am suffering from social phobia. I cannot manage being in a crowd of people.
I am finished with cities. I spent four years in New York, ten in Paris, and I was in Belgrade for a while. To me now they are just airports.
I am really bothered when I see my friends facing problems back in Iran, but I tell them that not all the doors are shut.
I am very proud to be Brazilian and more motivated than ever to demonstrate what I can do.
The more I see of the Swedes, the more I am convinced that there is no kinder, simpler, and honester people in the world.
I was one of the first artists to make a buzz about '106 & Park.' If it wasn't for that show, I wouldn't be the entertainer that I am today.
I don't want to be a race-transcending leader. I want to be deeply understood as a man, as African- American, as a Christian, all that I am.
Sometimes I read that I'm not 100 per cent Chinese, because I don't look all that Chinese. That's a strange one - I am Chinese.
So much of reading and writing to me is about being elsewhere, no matter how much I love where I am.
Feels sometimes I am working in a Jail, but when I Concentrate on my work, then I forget all my troubles.
I am writing a book about the Crusades so dull that I can scarcely write it.
I am a Christian, but I also don't really see myself as a religious person. I see myself as more of a spiritual person.
Could I be in a better place and happier than I am today? I don't think so.
I'm not intimidated by other actors at all - or directors. I don't care who they are. But I am intimidated by writers. I hold them in the highest esteem.
People are often afraid for me. They think that I am going to break. I can make it through a set.
