My parents have always said, ‘You’ll be so unhappy if you’re no more than your career, that it’s important to get out there and do things other than just your career.’

Fans have always said that I would make a great Indiana Jones, a great Young Indiana Jones.

They do awful things in the press. One newspaper in England said I was 12 years older than I am, and I was ready to sue.

I have sons, and they have never said the word hell in front of me or my wife. That’s the truth.

Whoever said, ‘It’s not whether you win or lose that counts,’ probably lost.

There won’t be any miracles. We never promised any. But as we have said before, when things are done properly, the results come in.

The person that said winning isn’t everything, never won anything.

At one time, you could sit on the Rue de la Paix in Paris or at the Habima Theater in Tel Aviv or in Medina and you could see a person come in, black, white,...

I met some fans who said, ‘Please start Twittering!’ They even walked me through it, but I’m terrible at it. I’m so bad at keeping it up. I forget how to use it. And I’m...

My pastor said, Just because you were a celebrity doesn’t mean you’re supposed to be a celebrity now.

What happened is, when I was doing ‘Taxi,’ the last year, we did this thing where we had on top hats and tails, and we pretended to tap-dance. And I said to myself, ‘You know,...

With me, nothing goes right. My psychiatrist said my wife and I should have sex every night. Now, we’ll never see each other!

When I talk about the assets, that was at the beginning of the talks. I was president then. I’m not president now. When I said it, this would be a sign of goodwill to begin...

I’ve heard people say that God is the gift of desperation, and there’s a lot to be said for having really reached a bottom where you’ve run out of any more good ideas or plans...

After all is said and done, more is said than done.

They called to tell me that I was going to be returning to RAW. I left immediately to run home and tell Jackie. She said, I have some news for you-I’m expecting.

Jesus.

I read all of the stories that people write about me. The ones that are really interesting are the ones where they actually write their take on me as opposed to just printing what I...

Who said that being Latino is to be a stereotype? Characters are stereotypes when making plans or without shades. I do not believe in the picture or model established in the movies.

I kept being asked by corporations to do corporate gigs. And I said, ‘I don’t have anything. I’m not a stand-up. You want me to come sing show tunes for you? I don’t think so.’

As a professional athlete a lot is going to be said about you – but I just try to move forward and try to achieve my goals.

You might think otherwise, but it doesn’t naturally follow that because a law has been passed by Congress and signed by the president, said law actually has to be implemented.

Skating was something I really wanted to do; my parents knew nothing about it. They said they’d support me as long as I was trying my hardest and enjoying it.

The first thing out of Fidel Castro’s mouth to me, he looked me right in the eye and said, ‘You’re a man of great courage.’

I said, ‘I’ll give myself two years. If I can’t support myself as an actress within two years, then I’ll go back to choreography.’

For me, the amazing thing was entering into this amazing world of ‘Sesame Street.’ We’d be in the kids’ room, and there was a door into the soundstage that said ‘1-2-3 Open Sesame.’ I remember...

I’ve always said that with kids’ TV that people get stuck in it from drama school but that’s not fair because I know myself that when you go in creatively, kids are so much more...

David has asked me, a number of people have asked me and said, What performance do you like best or what’s the best film you’ve made and so on and I don’t really have any...

Hence a ship is said to head the sea, when her course is opposed to the setting or direction of the surges.

It just so happened that my agent called and said, ‘There’s this movie ‘Pitch Perfect.’ Here are the sides.’ I think I originally read for Bumper, because Donald didn’t have much in the script, so...

I’m going to be looking forward, asked to be judged on my record, not taken back as has been the – in a sense, the tendency throughout politics in Northern Ireland, is to always look...

I always wanted to be on ‘Glee.’ As soon as the pilot aired, I said I needed to be on the show.

I think it’s going to deliver on the promises we’ve said it’s going to and it is going to be the most successful product ever to come into the handheld environment, and it just happens...

My mom always said fighting with me as a kid was like going to court. I’m trying to realize that being right is not the most important thing.

I’ve had so many things, good and bad, said about me. I’m way beyond worrying about what people say.

The only foreign policy advice I heard from China was when they said to Sudan, ‘Don’t go back to war.’ That’s all they said. They didn’t push anything else.

Although, I am proud of all my Symphonies as they all have something special to say, my particular favourite is the Fifth. As the great Mahler expert Donald Mitchell said that if Mahler had written...

If you want a transcript of tonight’s program, get a pen and write down everything I said.

Everything has changed. When I was at school and was told I had better learn English, I said: What for? The English are a hell of a long way away!

My girlfriend in eighth grade had been asking her friends when I was going to kiss her. At a dance, my buddy said, ‘You better do it now!’ I went in for it. I felt...

I think she said I should seek help. Something like that, but it was in much cruder terms. And that I had a fascination with things coming out of people’s mouths.

Skylar is my first name and Astin is my middle name, and my real last name is Lipstein. When I was 15, I think my first agent just kind of did it for me. I’m...

Somebody asked me what do you regret. I said, well I was offered the role of Maverick in ‘Top Gun’ and I turned it down.
