I'd like to do more family dramas.

If we're talking about masculinity and tenderness, I don't look at Clinton.

I'd like to do more family dramas.

Through all the relationship stuff I've gone through in the past few years, I know there are fundamental differences in how men and women view sex and how they view their futures.

But I guess I like playing flawed guys 'cause it gives a place for the characters to go.

You never really know as an actor; it's completely out of your control, in terms of editing, and music, and film stock, shot selection, and what takes they use.

I can think of films that I'm producing right now that are extremely hard-hitting, graphic films, that nobody necessarily wants to see, graphic in terms of violence, of adult content and racial and historical subject matter.

If it helps me in the way that if this movie is successful, I get to make more films, great, and the more films that I make and the more interest that I'm allowed to cover, the better for me and the better, hopefully, for the people who like to watch me.

Some movies get rushed out right after you make them and I'm not always happy with that.

I don't do comedy so much although I would like to do a comedy.

I often feel that my days in New York City, that I was here for five years, didn't get one job, went on a thousands of auditions and literally did not get a job on a soap, not a movie, not TV, not nothing, although I did do some commercials thank God.

The F.B.I. is about nuts and bolts. It's all about witnesses and procedure and walking the streets.

I think that maybe that's my weakness, in that I don't know how to do it, so I just do what I do and try to do it as passionately and as well as I can.

I've been working for many years and I think I've managed to work with some of the best people in the business, which has been rewarding and an apprenticeship.

I always ask, why can't I be just like Cary Grant or something.

Yeah, but there's nobody who represents romance to me like Cary Grant.

But then, even with sex, I'm more in the school of less is more in movies.

When it gets down to it you just have to act.

A film has its own life and takes its own time.

Right now, I have to admit, that I'm more interested in giving people a little bit of hope and goodness.

I would love to get great performances from actors as a director, because that's what I'm always looking for, a director that's going to help me go places I've never been before.

It seems to me if you want something badly enough, whether you're a man or a woman, you'll do whatever you have to do to get it.

Yeah, I'd like to get the girl and at least make it through the film.

But I will say this: In my humble opinion, knowing nothing about it, I do believe that they have remote viewers working on where Osama Bin Laden is. I absolutely, 100%, convinced of that.

I'm an actor and it happened to go my way that day.

I got as much information as I could, so I wouldn't look stupid, but this is a post 9/11 world and there's only so much you can do with the FBI in terms of research.

I mean, the problem is, I think I'm a great writer.

I think every actor wants to be an FBI or cop at one point.

Some movies I see today have the most dramatic plot points but the actors are not playing them dramatically.

Directors, producers can make you look good or make you look bad.

I think women can be as cruel as men, and men as tender as women, and vice versa.

I'd like to do a romantic comedy.

It makes me feel good that I can now sit there and go, I've worked with Jack Nicholson, Al Pacino, all the great actors that I've worked with... Sir Ben Kingsley.

I'm sort of fascinated by the whole espionage crime thing.

There are different reasons to make movies.

Well, I've thought many times when my career was in the toilet, that I was going to have to seriously consider getting another job, I don't know what I'd do.

I would like to direct.

I think America right now is looking for somebody who appeals to every faction.

I think they are very important because westerns have a code and a symbolism.

Young actors often don't think of the consequences of doing nudity or sex scenes. They want the role so badly that they agree to be exploited, and then end up embarrassing family, friends, and even strangers.

On the road to equality there is no better place for blacks to detour around American values than in forgoing its example in the treatment of its women and the organization of its family.

We're parents first, and once you have kids, everybody knows that you have priority lists. Number one is your family and everything else just kind of finds its place.

I have a project at HBO and one at the Family Channel coming that are being looked at. Aside from that I am not doing much more than playing golf and some skiing.

I didn't tell anybody about my plan because I was convinced my family or friends would stop me. I didn't think much about what would happen afterwards.

You know raising a family in the lifestyle of a professional athlete can be very difficult.

I love to see my family together. That's what life is about. It's about family.

Like religion, politics, and family planning, cereal is not a topic to be brought up in public. It's too controversial.

It was an idea we had when Al was in the Senate - to organize and moderate an annual conference that would look at government policy through the lens of the family to help identify ways that the family can be supported and strengthened.

Even though we were all celebrities to a certain extent, we all looked at each other as family.
