I know I can handle dramatic roles, but I don't think I should have to play a young mother on crack to prove it.
Our house was awash in books, and my mother doled out her favorites like they were special treats - which they were.
My mother tried to teach me when I was a small child to sing but failed because of my inability to carry a tune.
When I was 20, my mother died and I went off the rails a little bit. I kinda had my slightly dark period.
My mother never married my father. She was married to and divorced from another man, then she married and divorced my stepfather and then, ultimately, they ended up getting back together.
I knew I wanted to be an actor, and my mother said, 'Call Aaron Sorkin.' It seemed dubious that I'd make it as an actor by calling Jews I knew, but it worked.
My mother was from Scotland and had very fair skin... she wouldn't allow us to go in the sun.
My mother... she is beautiful, softened at the edges and tempered with a spine of steel. I want to grow old and be like her.
As a boy, when I was bad, my mother would chew me out in Spanish. And since I was bad a lot, I learned a lot of Spanish!
I know what I want to look like. I don't want to look trashy. I want mothers to be able to look at me and not have to close their kids' eyes!
If his mother was drowning and I was drowning and he had to choose one of us to save, He says he'd save me.
I don't know anyone who curses the way they do on the Sopranos. Not in an Italian household. I never said the word hell in front of my mother.
My mother always said I must be part Mongolian because of my lotus-pale complexion and squid-ink black hair.
I think a lot of mothers are doing as I am: starting up their own ventures as their children grow older, and having a kind of second blooming.
In my mother's belly, I remember not liking the tempi my father played the Beethoven Sonatas in.
I think Mick Jagger would be astounded and amazed if he realized that to many people he is not a sex symbol, but a mother image.
My mother and I split ways when I was very young and have never really reconciled.
My mother had a lot of phobias. She's pregnant with me and she was a very phobic person. So I was born into phobia, basically.
My mother, Evelyn, was an actress and singer, and my father, Jack, was an actor. My earliest recollection of my father is being taken to see him in a matinee.
I've always taken pride to be the white guy that can talk to the black people, that can refer to them truly as a brother from a different mother.
When I did make the decision to focus on acting, I think my mother was just relieved for me that I had finally started to focus.
