I'm not going to let other people set my limitations.

I'm lucky to be alive. It took three years of therapy to recover but I did it.

I'm definitely more understanding of people who have disabilities and who are suffering.

I told Clooney, George, you’re worth $100 million — of course you can afford to be a socialist!

The funny thing about television is that once you start to do it you never get time to watch it.

It doesn't matter how successful you are in this business, it's tough to get through the next door.

I've always been a religious guy, but not overly religious. I've always believed in God and Jesus. I pray.

Hollywood likes to put out their own message out a lot of times, and that message isn't the best one for everyone.

I don't understand why Christians are taking such a bashing...and why do we glorify people that do destructive things?

There are so many negative things out there on television and movies right now. Even the daily news, it gets depressing.

People can be good, people can be generous, people can be helpful. People can help those who are in need when they need it.

There are many things clogging the television waves. You've got to fight for every bit of television households you can get.

Anybody who knows the public school teacher world knows there's not a lot of money in teaching. You do it because you love what you do.

If you believe in God you get to the point where (you feel) "Yeah, you know what, God forgave my sins but I still have to forgive myself."

I like doing movies that have good messages and have good moral backgrounds to them and things like that - and send out positive messages.

In a career playing heroes, I learned a little about the real thing. A hero stands up-for himself, for herself, but most importantly for others.

There's a lot of negative messaging and it beats on you after a while. And people are growing up with that stuff and they start believing it themselves.

I've always said even the most hardened pro-choice people would be just devastated to watch an actual birth and then watch a baby be killed before their eyes.

There shouldn't be a separation of any religion in any way. Unfortunately, through the centuries there have been problems from the "My God is better than your God" mentality.

Christianity takes this beating that I really don't understand and yet you can't say anything negative about the Muslims because that's horrible, you can't say anything negative about other faiths.

On losing the opportunity to star in Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman 'You know what? It happened for the right reason. Although I would have made a good Clark Kent. I look better in glasses.

If you keep saying two plus two equals five over and over again, then that is what people are going to think. Maybe it does equal five if we keep changing the definition of what's normal and what's right and what's wrong.

Work hard, believe in your dreams, follow your dreams, don't give up, don't let failures hold you back. Those things were preached to me. They've taken a firm rooting system in my beliefs and what I'm passing on to my kids.

I love what movies and television and all that kind of stuff has done to me through the years. I love that it can bring up all these different emotions in me - whether it's anger or happiness or sadness...whatever it may be.

This is our lance. See, you're making me laugh about this now, because there have been a few jokes on the set about what they actually look like. But, see, I personally think they'd be a great toy. So... just batteries aren't included.

If you ever watched 'Hercules,' you can see that it was made in a comical way for the most part. I remember getting lots of letters from kids around the world saying that the show helped them curb their temper and not look for trouble and just walk away from it because that was the stronger thing to do.

I have insecurities. But whatever I'm insecure about, I don't dissect it, but I'll go after it and say, "What am I afraid of?" I bet the average successful person can tell you they've failed so much more than they've had success. I've had far more failures than I've had successes. With every commercial I've gotten, there were 200 I didn't get. You have to go after what you're afraid of.

Even in the 1960's, look at the minority percent of those kids being raised without a father. It was around 20 percent. America is at 80% today. I think the government is to blame for that. I think the media is to blame for that. I think you have to look at television shows and sitcoms. How do they portray fathers? They are dopey. They are dumb. They are fat. The mom is hot and the kids make fun of dad, and mom makes fun of dad. We have just relegated his role to be sort of the dumpy loser guy. And we need to get that back.
