“I think every relationship is going to go through a few rough patches. Those are what make it stronger, I think.”

“There's a lot of actors I think that appear so much more together as the characters they portray as opposed to the actual people, so I know I've said this before: Hollywood's not a place where you're rewarded for growing up.”

“I read the 'Deadpool' series back in the '90s. I'm not, like, a huge comic book reader, per say, though. I'll check out 'Archie' when I'm in the grocery line, but that's about it.”

“I think a fragrance is more of a signature than even what you wear - something you'll remember more down the road than a shirt.”

“Even if my father wasn't speaking to me, he would never, ever miss a baseball game.”

“When I meet thousands of fans of the comic - when I realize every one of them can recite the Lantern Corps oath ('In Brightest Day, in blackest night...') - I know how important this is to people.”

“It's just that... working on 'Green Lantern,' I saw how difficult it is to make that concept palatable, and how confused it all can be when you don't really know exactly where you're going with it or you don't really know how to access that world properly - that world comic book fans have been accessing for decades and falling in love with.”

“I've always just liked working. I like being a working actor.”

“I have a discipline that has served me very well in my career and in my personal life... and that's gotten stronger as I've gotten older. I've always felt if I don't just have a natural knack for it, I will just out-discipline the competition if I have to - work harder than anybody else.”

“My tattoo is of a cannon in Vancouver that I got in a fleeting moment of stupidity maybe 14 years ago. A lot of people have really beautiful tattoos, and I get real tattoo envy. But then other people basically just treat them like bumper stickers for their bodies.”

“Acting has given me a way to channel my angst. I feel like an overweight, pimply faced kid a lot of the time - and finding a way to access that insecurity, and put it toward something creative is incredibly rewarding. I feel very lucky.”

“I don't personally believe that villains exist. Villains are just a way of saying that somebody has an opposing conviction.”

“The problem with romantic comedies is you know the ending by the poster. So they're not movies you can keep doing over and over again expect satisfaction somehow.”

“I think we know too much about actors as it is and their personal lives and it's this information age where we're stimulated constantly by the celebrity buzz effect or whatever it is, these web sites and blogs and different things.”

“We might be too proud to admit it as guys, but we still need to learn how to manage responsibility, how to face our challenges.”

“I'm not a hockey fan, which is probably why I had to leave Canada in the first place.”

“I'll say this: The media wasn't invited to my marriage, and they're definitely not invited into the divorce.”

“You'd be hard pressed to find more drama in 'Days of Our Lives' than you do in an average job each day.”

“A nicely fitted two-button suit is the best thing any guy can have. Guys are lucky: We can wear a suit over and over, just with different shirts and ties.”

“Marathon running, for me, was the most controlled test of mettle that I could ever think of. It's you against Darwin.”
