If my life were a song the title would be ‘The Comeback Kid.’

I don’t even know what the odds are for one kid or one team to make it here. Obviously, being from Canada this is their Stanley Cup – they made it. It’s hard enough to get here and it’s hard enough to advance.

My mother always tells me that when I was a little kid, my first ambition was to be a truck driver, and after that, I went through everything from wanting to be a Prime Minister to an air hostess, but never an actor. So I became one, and it was a great journey. I learnt...

As a kid I was always a bit of a clown, a performer.

Doing a musical is like having a kid. It’s out there alive somewhere. It’s not like a movie or a TV show where what we intended is what everyone will see. The kid can act out. The kid’s going to do what it wants to do.

I was a big ‘Charlie Brown’ fan as a kid.

Jerry Bruckheimer is the most hands-on producer that I’ve worked with. Jerry’s very involved in the music, and he’s such a fan of film. When you watch him playing back the cues to the picture, he’s like a kid in a candy store.

In my day, when I was a young kid, army duty was compulsory in South Africa or you go to jail. I had the choice, so I spent a year in the entertainment unit, and outside of doing shows – and I used to write for, arrange for the big band – outside of doing...

As a kid in British Columbia, going back a long way, I learned to skate.

When I went to Paris, I had a lot of ideas about it that were formed in the sort of ether that flows about if you watch too many recent Woody Allen movies or took French classes as a kid. I was certainly full of those.

I’ve been writing stories since I was a kid. I love writing stories.

Go on, glare your eyes at me, and cry and plead, and talk tome about money and what it can buy. But it can’t buy back a child once he’s dead!

I’m a Detroit kid who grew up with that assembly line mentality: You go to work to make money.

When I would see my friends with their kids, I was envious that you can use children to get out of just about anything. If you don’t feel like going to a dinner party, you could say, ‘My kid’s sick. I can’t make it.’ Who’s gonna argue with you?

I was a very quiet kid. A really sweet kid, I might add.

The first horror film I remember seeing in the theatre was Halloween and from the first scene when the kid puts on the mask and it is his POV, I was hooked.

You are like the kid who even cannot understand the different between a kiss on the cheek and a kiss on the lips; simple and devoted unlike the rest of the world.

But ever since I was a kid, I was always the winner.

I joined the swim team when I was 12, and I was the worst kid in the pool – I was put with a group of 7-year-olds.

I was reading a magazine when I was a little kid, probably about twelve years old, and an ad said that if you sell so many jars of Noxzema skin cream, we’ll sell you a ukulele. So I went out and banged on doors in the snow in Quincy, Massachusetts, where I was raised, and...

You’re not a bad parent if you don’t save for your kid’s college because instead you had to choose to feed them and clothe them. Those things come first. They can go to school and do this thing called ‘work’ while they’re in school.

What I always wanted to do when I was a kid was to speak out and help people which I continue to do afterwards.

A quiet kid is a good kid. But a quiet and invisible kid is an even better kid.

As a kid, ‘Star Wars’ was much more my thing than ‘Star Trek’ was.

Every song is like a kid. How can you have that many kids and have a favorite? Which one do I like to hang most with? Probably the one that I haven’t hung most with recently.

In every little boy child is hidden a great man; in every little girl child is hidden as great woman. God hides great things in little things and it takes the Holy Spirit of God get them unveil!

I wasn’t even a theater kid in high school. I studied classical piano, and I ran track.

I was always an introvert as a kid. Then, when I first kind of came out as a human being, I used to be one of those guys who’d go nuts on the dance floor, and people would gather around.

I didn’t really play dress up when I was a kid, and I’m really T-shirt and jeans-y.

I was really a spoiled brat when I was a kid skating. Meals are cooked for you, you are driven to the rink, they make costumes for you. Your parents sit around and watch admiringly while you skate. You don’t have to think about anything but skating. You’re just plain spoiled.
