I think children love reading, and they will make time for it if we put the right books into their hands. And I hope I get the chance to keep being one of the people that writes them.
To have everything written for you... It's not really creating. That's why I think symphony drummers are so limited. They 're limited to exactly what was played a hundred years before them by a thousand other drummers.
Of course I had written a film about Elizabeth I, and I loved the Tudor period, and I think at the time Working Title and I had debated on whether to do Elizabeth I or Henry VIII. I'd always wanted to do Henry VIII. Like Elizabeth, I'd had this feeling that it had never properly been addressed.
I've never lied. I think I've lived a moral life.
I don't work out a lead section and practice it for a day and then lay it down. I don't do that. The first time I do something I think is expressive or really cool, that's what's actually on the recording.
We've been taught to believe that actions speak louder than words. But I think words speak pretty loud all of our lives; we carry these words in our head.
I think that's why my career is going to be so long: Because I haven't given people everything.
I think 'Prince Valiant' was the first cartoon I ever did.
I think there's almost nothing that I won't, sadly, do for a laugh. It's a problem, actually.
I've had many ups and downs before, and I think it's always darkest before dawn.
I ask people why they have deer heads on their walls. They always say because it's such a beautiful animal. There you go. I think my mother is attractive, but I have photographs of her.
I think for a woman, the hardest thing about growing old is becoming invisible. There's something very front and center about being young.
I think that's what is so cool about performing. When there is a show to do, you get up there and do it.
For sure, the American people have access to more information now than any other people who have ever lived on earth. And I think we do a pretty good job of sorting out what's important.
It sounds really corny but I think that if you're beautiful inside it shows on the outside, for sure.
So many people always try to help me carry my luggage and help me do things I can do myself. If I can do it myself, I'm going to do it myself. I'm not going to let other people do it for me, and I think that's a big part of where I came from. I'm not a real prissy girl.
I think what you're seeing is a profound recognition on the part of the American people that gays and lesbians and transgender persons are our brothers, our sisters, our children, our cousins, our friends, our co-workers, and that they've got to be treated like every other American. And I think that principle will win out.
We are at crisis point. I think anybody that sees this nation as being on stable economic or fiscal ground is fooling themselves.
I think there's a lot of different ways to win. You've seen teams that win championships with a super-duper star like Kobe Bryant. Those championship teams with Michael Jordan certainly had a great, great player.
I tend to stay in character between scenes... to be rather serious on set, but here's why, and I think people will find it surprising. I'm one of the worst 'corpses' on a movie set, which means you can't keep a straight face. You start to get the giggles and you can't stop.
I think you have to deal with grief in the sense that you have to recognize that you have it, and say that it's OK to have all the sadness.
I've always wanted to meet Robert Downey, Jr. because I think he's awesome.
I think it's wonderful to save the world, but you need to be part of the world, too.
Personally, I think there's a lot to recommend being friends with your ex, and I'm glad to admit that I'm living proof of its possibility.
Do we root for Michael Corleone in the 'Godfather' films? I think so, even if he is a monster.
I think actors get too comfortable. I like being uncomfortable as an actor because it keeps you alive. I don't know, I think it's important.
I think that with Donald Trump, the United States will have a president who is not ideologically limited; that is, he is an open person, much more interested in success, efficiency, and results than political theories.
I think the story is the most ancient form of human entertainment.
I think the way IBM has embraced the open source philosophy has been quite astonishing, but gratifying. I hope they'll do very well with it.
I think the story of DiMaggio was alluring precisely for its impossibility.
I think there's nothing better than laughing in life, so that's nice, to be thought of as someone who can make someone laugh. It's 'cause I think life is hard. You know, my dad was a really silly man. A great Irish silly man. And that's fine.
Our kids are growing up with more privilege than we had; that's true for most of my friends in L.A. I don't know any actor who grew up with any particular privilege, so everyone wrestles with this. And I think, a lot of times, it's about being patient with your kids.
My style is unique and random. But I think it's important that it still makes sense.
I think I love my sport. I enjoy to play tennis. It's my passion.
No, that's not it. The first time we met was at Fat Tuesday's. Benny was playing, this was, I think in 1989?
I'm really rubbish with technology; I'm super backward! I think I got a mobile phone last out of all my friends. I really worried about people being able to get hold of me at any time - I really hated that idea.
