Maybe I was 7 – I probably am exaggerating a little – and immediately was plunged into the fact that there was an official place to put your fantasies. Up until then I didn’t know...

Maybe the answer to Selective Service is to start everyone off in the army and draft them for civilian life as needed.

I would have thought that if you’re going to try to punish the Syrians and prevent them from using chemical weapons again, the thing to do is a one-time strike. Maybe a cruise missile strike...

Because I tend to kind of hide under the sheets when it comes to reality television. I’ve seen probably one episode of maybe five different shows, and that’s about it.

Becoming a coach has to be in your blood. There are hundreds and thousands of former athletes out there, but there are maybe only 10 people who want to dedicate their lives by taking on...

Maybe I was just born to argue with men.

There are many things that, if I have to relive, maybe I will do it another way. But I would not like to look back and think what I have not been able to.

You have to sound sad first of all, then maybe later you can sound good.

Maybe silence is something we’re uncomfortable with as a culture, I don’t know.

The problem is that with blogging, the model is publish first, maybe fact-check later. In newspapers, the model is you fact check first and then publish. But those models are merging.

I’d like President Bush to think maybe there’s another way to think, that maybe Kissinger was wrong when he says we had to go in there because he was wrong about Vietnam.

I’d like to write a history, maybe of the Reformation.

I saw novelists as being admirable people and I thought… I thought… maybe, one day, I could be one of them.

There used to be three networks, and now there are 40 million networks. There’s a lot more competition out there, too. We would bring in 27 million people. Now, they’re lucky if they have 17....

Louis Malle is maybe one of my favorite directors, but I love Tarantino.

My Hamlet was about as alienated as you can get. Mine was a bitter and lonely prince. Valid, I think, but maybe tough to root for. I think that romance was missing.

I don’t think too much about age. Maybe if you’re hurting, aching and arthritic, then you think about it a lot. But I don’t.

They may have turned this up, whether you had the Paula Jones case or not. But again maybe not, but again that’s like if a frog had side pockets he’d probably wear a handgun.

I was a confident, outgoing little boy. If you’re an only child, you’re living in a very linguistically adult world, and you’ve got to keep up. So I did. Maybe I was slightly annoying.

When you’re just an actor, maybe not the top of the list guys, you get constant rejection and it’s fun.

Perhaps soul mates don’t exist, I thought. Maybe they were only a way to get over a loss that couldn’t be forgotten, a way to mend a heart that was unredeemable—an aberrant remedy that dissolved...

When I was four, I just wanted to drive, I collected toy cars. Where does that sort of thing come from? In hindsight you go, ‘Oh, liked it because of this.’ Maybe it’s just the...

Maybe I am a jerk sometimes. Maybe I’m not. I think most people are kind of a jerk once in a while.

I think maybe I was a shepherdess in a past life.

Maybe a thing that you do not like is really in your interest. It is possible that a thing that you may desire may be against your interest.

If I hadn’t had a baby, a part of me thinks I might have turned up on the red carpets all the time and gone, ‘Hi, it’s me!’ Maybe other people do it because they...

There are a lot of good things that we can do. Maybe my example can help someone.

We hear foreign accents on CNN. It’s crazy, it’s wild, who knows, maybe they’ll take you because you certainly don’t fit in, in the American spectrum of news.

Maybe I’m old-fashioned. But I remember the beauty and thrill of being moved by Broadway musicals – particularly the endings of shows.

It’s weird because when you initially write a song, you write it with no understanding that the world is maybe going to hear it one day. So when you go into the studio, you don’t...

I had never really pictured myself working in children’s ministries. I always figured I would be more comfortable with maybe teens or adult ministries.

With so much at stake maybe I’ll just leave now.

Maybe it’s because One Direction was just on ‘SNL,’ or because I’m playing The Wanted on my Top 40 show, but in terms of boy bands, we’re seeing this resurgence, and it’s happening, whether you...

When you have a chef that wants to be in the spotlight, maybe after one or two appearances on a show, they think they’re at a certain level that they haven’t reached yet in the...

Thrillers are my favorite. I like stuff that keeps you on the edge of your seat or maybe makes you jump.

Life for me is just a result of experiments being performed by far more developed creatures.

There are two metaphors for Mario the person and not Mario the footballer. I think I am a man, but I don’t believe I need to say it. But I could also be Peter Pan...

For years, I sort of would try to write a story that somehow fit the title. And I don’t think it happened for maybe another four years that I actually thought of a story, the...

I grew up in an area of Ireland where there weren’t many black or mixed-race children. But I never had any hassle; maybe I’ve blocked it out, but I don’t think so.

Japan has only 100m people. Asia has 4bn. At least one-third, maybe nearly half, will become middle class, and this is a big opportunity for Japanese businessmen.

Maybe I thought too much about picking up the money and not enough about the really good parts.

I was maybe 10 or 11 when I saw ‘Titanic.’ And, yes, I was a fan. I loved it.

The whole idea of a stereotype is to simplify. Instead of going through the problem of all this great diversity – that it’s this or maybe that – you have just one large statement; it...

I’m not strong-willed enough or unkind enough… or maybe simply not wise enough to tell a journalist that a subject is out of bounds.

Sometimes you’ve just got to grab an apple – or grapes, or strawberries. Something that’s healthy but maybe a little bit more adventurous, if you can see fruit as adventurous.

We did a lot of that in drama school: intellectualising and maybe justifying your position. ‘I am a thinking actor and I have thought this through’ – well, just do it. I much prefer the...

There’s a way you have to play the quarterback position in the NFL. Maybe I’m a little bit old school, but I think you have to play the game in the pocket with consistency.

Editing yourself is like an irksome coin toss. You’ve got to strip yourself of super ego and operate from the id. Maybe I’ve got my Freud mixed up. It’s just hard to trade a beauty...

I know a lot of actors talk about the importance of wardrobe, and it always seems like it’s kind of a cop-out, maybe, because it seems like a minor detail to some people. But I...

I think I probably hoped for it a little bit, but I’m not an optimist. I’m a realist… or maybe even a pessimist.
