dream vision important
It is very important to transcend the places that hold us.
dream stars hard-work
It was never my dream to be famous. I didn’t start acting to be a movie star. I started in the theater and my desire was to get better at my craft. It’s still my desire. I don’t consider myself a movie star, nor do I really have the desire to be one. I’m just an entertainer...An actor who works hard at his craft. Whatever labels people give me, that’s not really me or part of my process.

I've heard (the rumors). Having babies, I've left home and all this... I'm a big boy. I can take it. But what bothers me about all of that stuff is the effect on the family.
money
I want to be responsible. If I give you $50 million, it's because I want my money to come back. Not because I like your haircut.
