acting film good-things
One good thing about acting in film is that it's good therapy.
fighting race good-fight
I fought the good fight, I finished the race, I kept the faith.
good-day inner-peace
For me, success is inner peace. That's a good day for me.
flower good-friend two
In marriage, if you're a guy, learn two phrases. One is "yes, dear" and the other is "honey, you're right." Be patient. Be good friends first. And stick together. You gotta work at it. It's not all a honeymoon, it's not all flowers and roses, but if you're friends and partners and committed, you'll be okay. And everybody's got advice for you - don't listen.
mean good-day eye
Success? I don't know what that word means. I'm happy. But success, that goes back to what in somebody's eyes success means. For me, success is inner peace. That's a good day for me.
bit felt goes good liked playing practice reason shakespeare streets
Part of the reason I liked the idea of doing the film was that it was very wordy. I was getting good practice playing Brutus. So 'Inside Man' felt a bit like Shakespeare goes to the streets or something.
We just go. It's a shorthand. It's familiar.
sports
We do what we have to do so we can do what we want to do.
In any profession it gets to be a grind.
work
I'm not in the loop; I don't know any actors, really, just the ones I work with.
acting family
Family is life; acting is making a living.
honor
It's not only a pleasure, but an honor for me to be here tonight.
bothers effect heard home left stuff
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.
