Authors can write stories without people assuming that they are autobiographies, but songwriters and poets are often considered to be the characters in their works. I like Michelangelo’s vision, ‘I saw the angel in the...

Knowledge will give you power, but character respect.

An authentic and genuine life grows like a sturdy tree. And like a tree, it grows slowly. Every time you make a different and better decision, it grows a little. Every time you choose to...

If it’s advisable to never share own problems with others as sages say that majority don’t care, then it’s more sensible to never brag of own achievements as their attitude is likely to remain the...

Foolishness is doing ignorantly something forbidden repeatedly by sages since ages, and Madness is doing the very same prohibited thing repeatedly but intentionally.

Many grow old with ages, but some attains age with wisdom.

I think all writers are armchair psychologists to some degree or another, and I think a character’s sexuality is fascinating. It’s a great way to really get at the root of their identity, because it’s...

I did 125 films, and over 100 television shows, and you’ve never seen the same character twice.

[Y]ou possess all the attributes of a demagogue; a screeching, horrible voice, a perverse, crossgrained nature and the language of the market-place. In you all is united which is needful for governing.

Preparation is definitely important, but it depends on the kinds of roles I do. Like, I completely identify with my character in ‘Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani.’ I had to be myself and I didn’t have...

If you put people in a corner, you see what their character really is.

When you mature in your relationship with God you realize how suffering and patience are like eating your spiritual vegetables.

Hoffman will win. It’s a crazy character, and Oscars like crazy people, and they want to give him a shout out for ‘Twister.’ That was his breakout role, you know.

It’s always scary when you’re doing a sequel to a film, because you don’t want to just repeat the first film in a different location like most sequels. You want to do something totally different,...

It’s not what we eat but what we digest that makes us strong; not what we gain but what we save that makes us rich; not what we read but what we remember that makes...

I think you just have to take everything that happens on a TV show with a grain of salt. You sign up for a show for six years having zero idea where they’re going to...

Not really, although I kind of went into a few chat rooms to research the character and a lot of the kids were very abrasive about me playing the character, because they didn’t know me,...

The best way to show that a stick is crooked is not to argue about it or to spend time denouncing it, but to lay a straight stick alongside it

Comedy, drama, Westerns, sci-fi… it’s all fine if the story’s compelling and the character is interesting to me. I do like action a lot.
