I have been married twice, and those were not the happiest times of my life. Part of the problem, quite frankly, is that when you get married, the romance disappears and the children arrive and the love is transferred. It shouldn't be that way, but too often it is transferred to the children.
In life we try to grow and better ourselves. As an artist, I feel like I've grown tremendously.
'House' was such a special part of my life.

Showing your life so public is a mistake sometimes, but I blame myself as much as anyone else.
Other actors are not my concern, and that's their life and that's their journey. Everybody has to get to a point in their own time and their own way.
I will say one thing: Mick Mars is one of the greatest songwriters I've ever met in my life and had the pleasure to work with.
Ships that pass in the night, and speak each other in passing, only a signal shown, and a distant voice in the darkness; So on the ocean of life, we pass and speak one another, only a look and a voice, then darkness again and a silence.
The old man, of whom we know how he has become what he is, is more of an individual than the young man; for it is only in the course of an eventful life that men are differentiated into full individuality.
For our part, we shall continue to work for the new dawn when all the Children of Abraham and their descendants are living together in the birthplace of their three great monotheistic religions, a life free from fear, a life free from want - a life in peace.
Here is bread, which strengthens man's heart, and therefore is called the staff of Life.
Humor is very interesting to me. My films are not comedies, but there's comedy in them from time to time, absurdities, just like in real life.
One's life has value so long as one attributes value to the life of others, by means of love, friendship, indignation and compassion.
I appreciate life, talk a lot, love to laugh, and am very optimistic.

I'm just kind of taking whatever life gives me and hoping that I make the right decision.
I have only ever read one book in my life, and that is White Fang. It's so frightfully good I've never bothered to read another.
I'm sort of in for a penny, in for a pound with Star Trek, It's my life at this point. To deny it would just be foolish.
Cancer didn't change me at all. I know lots of people talk about the life revelation. I didn't have that.
All of my books come from something that I happen to be working out at a given point in my life. It's kind of self-therapy.
Thinking is a wonderful tool if it's applied. Thinking, however, can not become the master. Thinking is a very bad master. If you're dominated by thinking then your life becomes very restricted.
Worrisome thoughts and their resulting feelings are a form of self strangulation. They not only strangle your emotions. They affect your physical life as well, and your ability to focus and get things done.
A lot of the stories I write about have an element of mystery. They're crime stories or conspiracy stories or quests. They do have built into them revelations and twists. But the revelations, to me, come from seeing history as it's unfolding, or life as it's unfolding.
At times in my life the only place I have been happy is when I am on stage.
Twitter has been my life's work in many senses. It started with a fascination with cities and how they work, and what's going on in them right now.
Life is so short. I would rather sing one song than interpret the thousand.
You're creating a different world and the actor's job is to be able to convince the audience to enter into that world, whether it be actually something that you recognize from your own life or not.
We believe that government works for the benefit of private life, and not the other way around.
I have tried very hard as a novelist to say, 'Novels are about individuals and especially larger than life individuals.'
Woe to the makers of literal translations, who by rendering every word weaken the meaning! It is indeed by so doing that we can say the letter kills and the spirit gives life.
I've got a life, you know, take me in the totality of my actions and I'll tell you, I will stand with my record.
You have to accept that Batman is a fact of life in Gotham City, and on top of that, you have to accept that somehow this city manages to function with a police force that's 90% corrupt.
I've always been really private about my personal life. I don't talk about it.
If you're in a company, you're dancing from 9 a.m. till 7 in the evening, and then you go home and get in a hot tub and get some Epsom salts and try to get your body goin' again. There's no social life, no anything.
At the end of my life, I have achieved belated fame and recognition in the city of my birth.
For me, 'The Social Network' isn't about Facebook. It certainly isn't about how people use it. It's about a flawed character and his pursuit of that grand idea that defines him and validates his life and how far he'll go to get it, and the repercussions that come as a result of that - what he gives up in the process.
