My agent said to me five years ago, 'Hugh, I can see one day you...if I had to plan a goal for you, it's for you to have the kind of career that Sinatra had.'
The secret to modern life is finding the measure in time management. I have two kids, career and I travel, and I don't think my life is any different than most couples. The most valuable commodity now for many people is time and how to parcel that out.
Life has ups and it has downs. I don't care who you are.

I don't think many actors are the best judge of careers. I think generally we have good instincts about what we can do in terms of acting. And often they become directors, which I don't want to be.
I had a fairly enlightened dad, though if you looked at his resume, it might not seem that way. He was a chartered accountant for Price Waterhouse. He was strict, and we had a very ordered life. To this day, I am the least materialistic person I know, because my father didn't raise me to just go out and buy this or that car.
I’ve broken a cardinal rule of art, music, and career paths: actors are supposed to act, and musicians are supposed to music. That’s how it works. You don’t buy fish from a dentist, or ask a plumber for financial advice, so why listen to an actor’s music?
To this day, I am the least materialistic person I know, because my father didn't raise me to just go out and buy this or that car. The only reason I wanted to make money as an actor was because I'm passionate about food!
I have shocking teeth.... I'm being a little facetious-I just went to the dentist the other day, and he looked at my teeth and went, 'Oh, my God, you've got gray teeth.'
This cure is the source of the battle that's going on. You have to eventually take a side. That's what I think is great about this story. For Wolverine, he works that out. There is a lot at stake in this movie. I think that there's going to be a lot of shocks in store for the fans.
Action figure. People can stick pins in it, put in the freezer. It's far more dangerous than a videogame.
Probably look at it for an hour then paint it or throw it in the pool.
basically, I'll make an ass of myself anywhere.
Peter's whole essence was very joyous. He was fearless, outrageous, and childlike, and he definitely lived life to the full.
