“I love roles where I am required to prepare physically. And it's fun putting on weight and eating.”

“I never lie. I believe everything I say, so it's not a lie.”

“I like to do projects I feel some connection to.”

“Being fit is almost as important to me as my face. And for me, it's a combination of being spiritually and physically fit. There are guys who want to look good, and there are guys who want to perform at their best. Being fit is about being able to perform at your best, not necessarily just looking your best.”

“A lot of talented actors still have to pay their bills.”

“It's funny, because when you're younger you're in a rush to be 18 or 21 or whatever. But then you hit 30. And now, the days go by like hours. You think, 40, man, this could be the halfway point. It could be the three-quarters point, you know? Who knows?”

“I like to talk to people. I've got one assistant, one Blackberry. That's my overhead. I don't text that much or email. I like to sit down face-to-face and have a conversation with you. I'm old-fashioned.”

“James Cagney, Steve McQueen, I loved all those guys. I grew up loving the movies but had no desire to be in them.”

“Being a Catholic is the most important aspect of my life.”

“If I succeed in business but fail as a father, then I've failed.”

“I work out Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday; take Thursday off; then I work out Friday and Saturday. So sometimes I'll eat whatever I want on Thursday, like a big breakfast of pancakes and bacon and eggs and stuff. You can eat a big, hearty breakfast because you're going to burn off most of it during the day anyway.”

“Well every moment, every project is different. I took a very slow approach to acting, trying to really work with people I could learn from. And I got something different out of each experience.”

“I embrace old age. Look, I'm never going to dunk on LeBron James, and I've learned to accept that. I got a pretty good life, and I'm very fortunate, and I have my blessings.”

“I don't go to Mass every day. But I go to church every day. Just sitting there, thinking - it's a great way to start the morning, you know? You feel so good coming out, and your approach to everything is suddenly really clear.”

“If I can start my day out by saying my prayers and getting myself focused, then I know I'm doing the right thing. That 10 minutes helps me in every way throughout the day.”

“Immortality... Is that a super power?”

“Clooney is just a pretty boy, man, and that's it, OK? I carried him on my back long enough. I'm on my own.”

“I've always wanted to be in the health and wellness business. I try to encourage people to live a healthy lifestyle.”

“The first thing I do when I start my day is, I get down on my hands and knees and give thanks to God. Whenever I go outside of my house, the first thing I do is stop at the church.”

“Tiger Woods is the only sports star who's worth every penny he makes.”
