Life itself had become disembodied. My family, the spine of my days, had crumbled. I was lost in invertebrate time.
If you can quit for a day, you can quit for a lifetime.
Literally, I think I've quit acting three or four times, only for a few days. Maybe for a few weeks.
I'm pretty much looking for beauty all the time. It just seems like some days the light is better to see it.
A schedule defends from chaos and whim. It is a net for catching days. It is a scaffolding on which a worker can stand and labor with both hands at sections of time.
I have family obligations and all that stuff. I get my kids six weeks in the summer, which is a real intense period of time. I'm with them every minute of the day.
If the head man in a company is not working 12 hours a day, doing things, taking risks, but also standing with his people in the trenches at the most difficult of times, then the company loses something.
So many parents these days are totally cool with their kids living on the couch the whole time. It's like a new thing with families. But you've got to leave the nest and get out there.
There are times when I'm driving home after a day's shooting, thinking to myself, That scene would've been so much better if I had written it out.
In L.A., I like to surf. I went through a phase - I was surfing four days a week. I'm still not good at it; I still spend most of my time falling.
Leadership can not be measured in a poll or even in the result of an election. It can only be truly seen with the benefit of time. From the perspective of 20 years, not 20 days.
Basically, the intersection between the animal world and the plant world is where life regenerates itself over and over, billions of times each day. It's the foundation of life on our planet.
In the theater, you act more of the time. In the movies, you get to act maybe 20 or 30 minutes of the day. I love acting in movies. It's just different.
Oh, I was completely hooked on movies and plays and theater from the time I was a day old - I was very, very early on in love with movies and I loved plays.
Spend some quiet time each day to get closer to your positive inner-self. It is always calling for your undivided attention.
I'm sure when the times comes, there will be tears, but there are other avenues that I am embracing with much more passion these days.
I remember a tour where we played 50 cities in 56 days. We also went to Europe a couple of times.
I work eight hours a day, but I'm not writing all that time. I'm thinking, editing, looking something up. Thinking is what I do a lot of.
Everybody's going through a lot of stress these days, no matter how well off you are and how many advantages you have, it's a stressful time in everybody's lives.
My perfect day is sitting in a room with some blank paper. That's heaven. That's gold, and anything else is just a waste of time.
