It's an addictive thing. It's not so much I like to go win, but it's a rush.

I'm very much looking forward to my 30-40 years of acting, and, as I get older, I'm really looking forward to some of the roles that are out there to play.

It's a great counter to doing the soap because it's a comedy. It's real physical comedy.

It's an addictive thing. It's not so much I like to go win, but it's a rush.

Taking employment out of the country - now that's taking away jobs. These shows employ a lot of people: production, post-production, music supervisors, camera people. A hundred people or more.

We need a space program because we need explorers. Its in our souls.

Yeah, I think if I were to go again, I'd try to go more on gut feelings and stick with it. I was on to Frederique. I found clues for everything, I found tons of stuff.

I'm sort of an experimenter; I thought it'd be interesting to play around and see what's there.

If we stop exploring space, we're going to lose the same part of us that found vaccines and penicillin, the part that searches for cures to cancer and AIDS.

I saw the excitement, going to different places, being able to explore emotion in a healthy way.

I love to entertain, I love to make people laugh, cry, and move them, perhaps moving them in their lives.

Well, acting was just in me and I tried to avoid it. I didn't want to do what my parents did, you know?

There's nothing like coming home here, having the day off or morning off and going surfing. In Orlando I don't know what I would do.

I have to say, though, it's a little strange doing both because Durant is very straight and stern and austere.

I'd like to direct some, act in some of them, and produce.

In daytime, they're doing 50-60 pages a day, whereas nighttime, you do seven or eight.

It's not so much I like to go win, but it's a rush. A horrible gut wrenching thing, but it's exciting.

They sent me some tapes of the original Mole and I thought it was pretty intriguing. I'm sort of an experimenter; I thought it'd be interesting to play around and see what's there. It was fun. Turned out to be good.

'Rust' really started with the passing of my dad, and me really looking back inward to my self about where I stand with all things on a faith/religious/spiritual level. And it's really put me on this interesting road and very educational, I might add, road back to understanding the role of faith in God and Christ in my life.

I always choose to remember the moment that was the best of Jeanne Cooper - those photos where she's in that wild dress triumphantly hoisting up the Emmy the night she finally won the damn thing. She was so proud, so happy.

I don't have a bunch of mates. I don't have a man cave. My wife and I, we are each other's best friend.

Most everything I do on a creative level is beyond the fame and money. I sort of work as an actor... and take care of my family and mouths to feed and all of that. I don't really care about fame, but our business means money sometimes and financial success, which I can pass on to my family.

Most kids have an innate feeling of the sense of God and spirit. But either we forget about it over time, or we're scared away from it.

My dad had a stroke. It's one of those life-changing events. It was right around the time I was turning 40. We were doing 'L.A. Law,' and I got this call that my dad was in Rome and had had a stroke. I want to stress that it wasn't a huge stroke, but it was enough to provide a serious wake-up call.

My mom was the center of my support system, that place I always went to talk things through, whether I was feeling joy or fear. She was always there with a huge, open heart and the best advice.

When you walk away from God, and you walk away from Christ, you're basically uprooting the very foundations of being. So I don't think there is an easy way to do that. Even for the guy who becomes an atheist out of it, it's messy. It ain't pretty.

You can't just take an aspirin and sit around and have 12 donuts and think, 'I took my aspirin so I'm not going to have a heart attack.' It's really important each person take personal responsibility for their health. You can't keep thinking that someone else is going to take care of it. You have to be part of the solution.

Theres nothing like coming home here having the day off or morning off and going surfing. In Orlando I dont know what I would do.

Change will not successfully happen unless the emotional component is solved.

You have to stick up for what you believe in. And that, to me, is the biggest thing you can do about driving inclusion.

I am sometimes a fox and sometimes a lion. The whole secret of government lies in knowing when to be the one or the other.

I got arrested for signing autographs. Signing a little girl's autograph got me arrested.

That Mississippi sound, that Delta sound is in them old records. You can hear it all the way through.

The right moment wears a full head of hair: when it has been missed, you can't get it back; it's bald in the back of the head and never turns around.

Crimes, like virtues, are their own rewards.

Most entertainment is trying to get you. Its tested like toothpaste.

The one and only time I met Pope Benedict XVI was when he was Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger.

There is hardly any activity, any enterprise, which is started out with such tremendous hopes and expectations, and yet which fails so regularly, as love.

I was born into Sudan's civil war, and before I could read or write, I was using an AK47 in the conflict between the Muslim north and Animist/Christian south over the land and natural resources.

I like the encouragement I get from doing new things. I like to feel scared or challenged in the hope that I can pull it off. That little bit of fear creates an energy that I can channel into the performance.

Everybody's youth is a dream, a form of chemical madness.

I believe when hard-working citizens have earned their pension, it's wrong for Washington bureaucrats and politicians to take their pensions away.

I never thought of myself as either a woman or a man. I thought of myself as a person who was born to a writer, who was doomed to be a writer.

The whole point of being an actor is to get satisfaction out of a role - unless you're just vain about celebrity.

I'm a trained lawyer, after all, so I don't have to admit to anything.

I'm convinced of this: Good done anywhere is good done everywhere. For a change, start by speaking to people rather than walking by them like they're stones that don't matter. As long as you're breathing, it's never too late to do some good.

I want to see my grandchildren grow up. I want to be there for my friends. I want to be able to love the person in my life. I want to work. I want to do something I've never done, which is save money. I've never bought anything. I have nothing.

We need a great president.

Art evokes the mystery without which the world would not exist.
