kids church pay
A lot of kids, when they go to church, they don't really pay much attention to what they're saying or whatever.
father kids way
I can't imagine laying a finger on my kids. I go the other way and probably because my father was so abusive.
growing-up kids men
When you're a kid, somebody's mid-forties, you think they're an old man. Then you grow up and it's like, I was a kid.
kids home pages
If you looked in magazines ... you never see me in those out-on-the-town pages. I'm either at home playing with the kids or I'm working.
kids want hips
Kids won't watch older movies - they want to see what's hip right now.
kids music-is
I know that I loved music before I loved movies, simply because I didn't see movies as a kid.
kids thinking people
Movies these days have made killers into funny people. What's that all about? I've got kids and family and friends, and I don't like bad things. I don't think they're funny, and it's irresponsible to make movies that don't show you how that's not good.
dream kids writing
Acting is playing - it's actually going out on a playground with the other kids and being in the game, and I need that. Writing satisfies that part of myself that longs to sit in my room and dream.
kids house care
If you're going to take care of your kids and pay for your house and do something good for adults, you have to do something on television now.
friday laughter kids
They were on the set of Bad Santa but I tried to keep the headphones away from them. My kids have seen Sling Blade, they've seen Armageddon, Bandits and Friday Night Lights. They have not seen Monster's Ball, nor will they ever, even when they're sixty [laughter]. I will leave it in my will that they can never see it.
drama kids independent
I've really dreamed of doing television. All of us do television, coming up. But when I was coming up, television was a black hole for actors. Now, television has a certain cache. Now everybody wants to be on TV because they're doing adult dramas. If you're an actor, it's like, "Well, get me on television," because it's the only place you can do it and also make a living at it. If my kids need shoes, I better do a TV show because I damn sure don't make any money with independent films.
mean talking people
If someone is talking to you and tells you that you ought to do something, and you can tell they mean it, those are the scary people. Those are the people you want to watch out for.
guy over-you stories
Sometimes we don't want the bad guy to get caught because otherwise the story is over. You want to at least see it through to the end.
careers actors
I've been largely an improvisational actor for most of my career.
