I have lived much of my life among molecules. They are good company.
My life really began when I married my husband.
My mom, who's been in the restaurant business for 40 years, is the number-one influence in my life. But I look up to a lot of people in the industry. Tops on my list is Mario Batali. My mom and Mario taught me the same lesson: Food is love.
I'm not one of those people who is not looking forward to getting old. I'm happy with my life.
I care about the people I know and love the most, but I also care about what the people I don't know think in the sense that I want them to think and understand me in a certain way. I don't base my life around either one, and I don't change the way I live to please either set of people, but I do care.
I really want to feel that I'm in a very balanced and good place in my life. And I do feel that. But I think it's always important to learn and draw little bits of inspiration from wherever we can.
I can obviously relate to a character who is an artist, because the creative process is a big part of my life.
One of the most constant and sustaining truths of my life has been this: I love the library.
There's never been a parent in my life.
If you're a poor white person and your life sucks, it's easy for you to blame Hispanics cos you don't want to look in the mirror and say, 'I'm the reason my life sucks.' The Republicans do a good job exploiting that.
I did 'Degrassi' for five years in Toronto, and I made the decision to quit the show to go to theatre school, which a lot of people thought I was really crazy to do, but it was one of those major decisions in my life that I haven't regretted - hopefully I won't! I really wanted to go to school.
My life is proof that I don't need you to do what I do. If there's no one to see it, I'll watch it.
I've probably spent a good year and half of my life watching movies. I love it. It was something I knew I'd be happy doing.
My life before children I don't really remember. I've heard references to it, but I really don't remember.
I always have traveled with a camera throughout my life, but I always had my old 35mm film camera. When I was training to go into space, the only equipment there was a digital camera. I went through a fast-track class on Earth. It actually was fun, though I'm basically a dinosaur with computers.
When I'm doing the Justice League stuff, my point of view is always coming through Buddy. And he's a dad, and there's stuff about his life that I relate to with my life, and I can also take the abilities of animals, which a lot of people don't know about me.
I feel like you get more bees with honey. But that doesn't mean I don't get frustrated in my life. My way of dealing with frustration is to shut down and to think and speak logically.
Even as a young boy, my passion was to design, and I have been very lucky to be able to do what I have loved all my life. There can be few greater gifts than that.
The first movie I literally ever made in my life was about two guys playing Stratego with each other. I had all my friends dressing up like the military characters in the game. So 'Battleship' is really my second board game turned movie!
Edinburgh is my adopted home. It's a place where I wanted to come and live, and I managed to arrange my life so it happened.
I have no fear of losing my life - if I have to save a koala or a crocodile or a kangaroo or a snake, mate, I will save it.
I tell people that I've now done one decent thing in my life. Albeit inadvertently.
If I had to change one thing about my life, it would probably be, I wouldn't be famous. Because when you're famous it's so hard.
Tennis has had a very positive impact on my life.
I just want to be happy, have kids, enjoy my life, help others and create some good work.
I have spent my life paying attention to my art form, developing my art form, worrying about my show and what I'm bringing to people, making sure that I give them a fine trade.
I have other obligations now - the show, my family, my life... though I know that without my sobriety I wouldn't have any of those things.
I look at myself as someone who has been very lucky - my job is also what I enjoy most in the world, and I can make my life doing it.
There is nothing more important in my life than being a father. I will never allow any of my career choices or aspirations to threaten this bond.
I am not going to let Athens affect the rest of my life.
And then a great thing in my life was going to India.
I have a responsibility to nurture and shepherd my talent and when I'm living the parts of my life not related to that I feel I have the right to be left alone.
'Blue Velvet' changed my life forever. It was like I'd always read Chaucer and suddenly discovered Charles Bukowski. It made me understand that there is poetry of sublime ecstasy and dark terror, and it spoke to a side of me that hadn't been reached before.
I'm in a position to look back at my life, and I realized there were a number of experiences that needed to be documented.
I don't mind doing occasional guest appearances on shows, but I have other things I'd like to do in my life now.
There have been people in my life who have told me I have to put myself out there more. But it's so hard for me to do that.
