I know something about life and being a father and the worries and the fears of bringing up children.
The life of an actor lends itself to emotion, and yet you have to be tough as old boots to stay at the table.
When you go through a long illness, certainly one of cancer, there's a certain release from it and relief that it has come to an end, because the suffering can be unbearable, as opposed to an abrupt stop to life when they go out the door and there's a loved one who never comes home because of some accident.
Intrinsically, I'm the same person I was as a young lad, and I think I still have the optimism of life, still the same wants and desires to be good and great about what I do.
I held the generous, strong, beautiful hand of my first wife Cassie as ovarian cancer took her life much too soon.
Cancer is the most pernicious, insidious, disgusting disease of life.
Barbara Broccoli was a great friend of my late wife's and continues to be someone who is very gracious with me, my family, and our life.
There are a lot of funny things that happen in one's life.
With such riches as I have in life, you're always nervous. Being Irish, you're waiting for something to knock it sideways.
My life started on the banks of the Boyne in County Meath. Navan is the name of the town; only me, Mom, Dad.
I try to be as disciplined as I possibly can. I try to live a fairly kind of clean life. I do yoga; I cycle and do weights and swim. I do whatever it takes.
I've been a married man most of my life; that's the way I like it.
I'm one of those guys who believes that you need a strong woman in your life.
You always bump into politics in life, and as a man, I'm party to a number of environmental issues that concern me first and foremost, as a man, as a father.
