I don't do a huge amount of physical activity. I play tennis, I work out sporadically, and I eat well and take care of myself.
Really, what are the options? Levi's or Wranglers. And you just pick one. It's one of those life choices.
Parenting is an impossible job at any age.
I think what a lot of action movies lose these days, especially the ones that deal with fantasy, is you stop caring at some point because you've lost human scale.
It took me a long time to figure out how to act, and how to conduct myself in the business so I could get what I felt I needed to support my potential and give them what they wanted.
When I first started out, I was a bad actor.
We have been led to believe that we have come a long way toward world nuclear disarmament. But that is not the case. Our government is not doing all that it could. We must urge our leaders to fulfill the obligations of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. The United States must assume world leadership to end once and for all the threat of nuclear war. It is our moral responsibility.
People need to see what's going on, and they have to be exposed to the mechanisms that can help make it right.
The only thing that I have done that is not mitigated by luck, diminished by good fortune, is that I persisted, and other people gave up.

The third time you say a thing it sounds like a lie.
Hell of a thing when a man's got good health, plenty of money and absolutely nothing to do.
Sometimes I try to improve the language, the lines, or the delivery, but I don't ad-lib because I think that makes it really hard for everybody else involved.
I think retirement's for old people. I'm still in the business, thank you. I have a young child of nine years old, and I want to live as long as I can to see him grow up. I'm enjoying my life and I want to stick around for as long as I can.
