Well, I'm Canadian. True, north, strong, and free.

If you're expecting an intellectual film, then you will be disappointed.

It was sort of his 'Brando' moment - his very 'method' moment. He just absorbed it and continued on.

I identify with the Clint Eastwoods and Harrison Fords. Those are my heroes.

They were so exhausted and seasick and all they could do was crawl up those beaches. And thousands of them lay dead in no time at all. It's unthinkable.

Casting directors now just see me as the hard-core sniper or prison guard.

Several of the actors I've had the good fortune of working with stand out in my mind as 'ultimate'. I guess the obvious would be Tom Hanks, because he really is as fun and as genuine as he comes across in his films and interviews.

Well, I'm Canadian. True, north, strong, and free.

I don't like to play the victim.

It's nice not to be too boring.

Westerns are very difficult to predict whether they'll reach an audience or not.

To dare to dream in the midst of adversity in the midst of failure in the midst of complacency is to have hope.

I think, in a lot of places, the solar panels are a badge of honor; they're trendy. If you go to Hawaii or Japan, people even install fake solar panels because it's cool and it's popular. And so I think solar panels have gotten a lot more attractive. They're sleek, black, they look good on a roof.

All societies that have survived have survived based on their ability to prepare their sons to be disposable in war and at work and therefore as dads.

I am basically turning football players into sprinters for a while. When we first talked about it, I didn't know how my expertise could be used.

I like Stevie Wonder as my favorite non-pianist pianist. I mean, I shouldn't call him a non-pianist, because he's really a great pianist, but he doesn't feature it that much - he uses his keyboards and his piano technique to support his great songs and so forth, but he can really blow.

I have always admired and had enormous respect for Elizabeth Taylor. She was not only an incredible actress but an amazing woman as well.

The masses are in reality their own leaders, dialectically creating their own development process.

I think greed is a critical problem - the gap between the poor and the rich. The gap between the top 10 percent and the bottom 10 percent.

Ever since I was younger I wanted to be on stage, singing my songs in a glittering costume. And that happened and is still happening. I have to remember that this is what I wished for and be grateful because there are 500 other girls right behind me that are ready to snatch it up.

Donald Westlake's lean prose and deadpan delivery are engaging, as always.

You can't plan to write a great song. It just happens to you. It drops in your lap. It's the same thing with a woman.

The children of the revolution are always ungrateful, and the revolution must be grateful that it is so.

I am glad. I am now an Olympic medallist.

I hate to tell you this, but I did not even like visiting Versailles. I found it just too ornate. It was like a complete diet of cotton candy, marzipan, and whipped cream. It gave me the mental equivalent of one of those toothaches you get when you bite into something too sweet.

When you get punched, you have to get up. You have no other choice. If you don't, you're not going to grow, you're not going to get better as a player.

There are so many talented young actors in the industry. I'm just happy to have a job!

We humans lack imagination, to the point of not even knowing what tomorrow's important things will look like.

I drink at least a couple of espressos every day and love the flavor of coffee.

I hate going to L.A. and dealing with the contempt people have for television and television actors. It's unbelievable the kind of attitude people take toward what is the most exciting medium we've got right now.

Despite our differences, I know that both Republicans and Democrats love America.

I'm quite interested in adapting some of James Herbert's early work. 'The Dark'... But I was always desperate to do an adaptation of 'War of the Worlds' until the Beard stole it from underneath my feet.

The stillness of the waters is only drowned out by the sound of your heartbeat.

So you know what I'm gonna do? I'm gonna do something really outrageous, I'm gonna tell the truth.

As women, we need to remember: don't be a doormat!
