Thanksgiving, man. Not a good day to be my pants.

Thanksgiving, man. Not a good day to be my pants.

From there, I tried out for a community theatre play, joined an improv group... it all started opening up.

I took a public speaking class in college and managed to make the class laugh a little bit.

There's no better feeling in the world than a warm pizza box on your lap.

I really wasn't a class clown.

A song can take you to a special time in your life.

As American as an apple is and as American as baseball is, they don't go together. You can't be chewing an apple at a baseball game. You've got to let go of the diet that day.

Back in '93 I saw my first UFC fight and just became enamored by it then.

Every few months I'll pop into a comedy club or go to Vegas.

Every time I do a movie where it gets physical, I say never again.

For some reason and I don't know why, but I don't think that I'm funny in California. So I always want to do my movies east somewhere.

I don't want to be known as this goody-two-shoes who can only do comedies where puppies are licking peanut butter off my face.

I had many teachers that were great, positive role models and taught me to be a good person and stand up and be a good man. A lot of the principals they taught me still affect how I act sometimes and it's 30 years later.

I had my boy in Boston on Easter Sunday. That kills me, from a sports perspective. He's a Boston baby and I'm a New York guy.

I just want to put some positive stuff out there. If it works, great. If it doesn't, no problem.

I never played a musical instrument growing up but I knew kids who did and took it very seriously.

I never played music, but it's an important thing ... the studying, the inspiration.

I think I invented the phrase 'Don't overdo it.'

I would always love to be an athlete, but it's got to be a tough day when you have to hang up those cleats.

I've always been the guy who doesn't necessarily get it with women. A woman would have to say, 'I like you, I want to go out with you, you can ask me.' And still I would question it. Did she mean it?

If I do a movie where I have to have a son and it's a chubby kid, my mother is always like, 'You were never like that.' She gets so upset about it.

It's always cool to meet people who can do things that you have no capacity to do.

Just me onstage with a mike having an intimate relationship with the audience. I don't get nervous for that. I just get excited.

Now I'm starting to jog. But every time I do jog I have 9-1 pressed into my phone, with the next '1' ready to be launched in case I drop.

Once a year my back will go out and it'll be... it's like a sciatic thing and it's the smallest thing. Like I could be leaning over the sink to brush my teeth in a weird way and it happens.

Teachers have a chance to mold someone, inspire them. I hope all teachers realize that.

You think school ends when it ends, but it doesn't.

Theres no better feeling in the world than a warm pizza box on your lap.

Thanksgiving man. Not a good day to be my pants.

Pie...it fills the cracks of the heart. Go away, pain.

I did work out every day. I needed it to have the endurance to do what needed to be done and not get hurt. I have such a new respect for action stars now.

I mean the only thing that is hopefully good about us is after the arguments we can actually still face each other the next day or the day after and talk about something else and sort of get over it.

My favorite singer to this day is Nat King Cole. I've tried to emulate his phrasing. It is so absolutely beautiful to listen to his lovely voice.

I want to have babies one day but not right now. When I do it I want to do it really well. I want it to be my best project in life.

I think I've become a much better singer and a much better player. Years and years of playing a couple of hours every day will do that.

I am tomorrow, or some future day, what I establish today. I am today what I established yesterday or some previous day.

I just wrote one song at a time. Kinda like an alcoholic. One day at a time.

Working mothers do an hour more per day than working fathers do and working mothers do on average an hour more per day with the kids than working fathers do.

When it is time to get to work, I go away completely and don't do anything except the work. And that can be 16 hours a day.

George Pal had total control, and he was there on the set every day. You never met a more charming man in your entire lifetime - what a lovely gentleman.

I'll tell you what I did need to learn was tolerance, and I think I've been actually given a daily opportunity to practice that, and it's - it's - and I know that that sounds almost like a backhanded slap, and it is in a way because I haven't been successful at it every day.

Since the beginning, I always loved the game. When you grow up in Montreal, one day you want to be a professional hockey player. When I was six or seven, I knew that was what I wanted.

Depending on what day of the week it is and what time of the month it is, I'm a good friend or not a good friend. I'm more or less a good mom or not a good mom, more or less a good mate or not a good mate. That's just life, whether or not you're public.

Even if you walk exactly the same route each time - as with a sonnet - the events along the route cannot be imagined to be the same from day to day, as the poet's health, sight, his anticipations, moods, fears, thoughts cannot be the same.

A play is much easier to maintain your personal life with because if you're rehearsing, you're working like from 11 to 6 or 11 to 5 and you get to have your whole morning and your whole evening. When you're doing the play, you have all day.

I'd like to one day play Amanda, the mother, in The Glass Menagerie.

Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

I'm working harder than ever now, and I'm putting on my pants the same as I always have. I just get up every day and try to do a little better than the day before, and that is to run a great restaurant with great food, great wine, and great service. That's my philosophy.
