I had taken a bit of a sabbatical because I was producing and directing films. But acting has always been my passion and it is something that I will continue to do.
I lived in L.A. for a year when I was four - my dad was doing a sabbatical at UCLA - so it always remained quite a familiar place.
That is the difference from being a manager and being a player: As a player, if you sign a contract for four years, if you want to be there for four years, you are. But as a manager, it always depends on the sack. You are always under pressure.
Unless we place our religion and our treasure in the same thing, religion will always be sacrificed.
I would always thank my parents in everything I do because they sacrificed everything for me to do what I love.
Whether a revolution succeeds or fails people of great hearts will always be sacrificed to it.
Cancer is a very sad thing, but you can always take something from every experience.
It's the sad thing about entertainment, it's not always about who is the best.
For me, the saddest thing in the world is always lost potential. That is always the most heartbreaking thing, when there's something left to be mined from a situation or a person that goes unexplored; that's a tragedy to me.
I always carry my classic black-and-white tux and custom-made George Esquivel saddle shoes.
Great comedy is always sadistic.
We've always had a sadistic obsession with technology.
Historically, gold has always been a safe haven against inflation and a safe haven in times of political instability.
Protecting children at risk of exploitation will always be a priority, and at the other end, safeguarding an ageing population brings its own challenges.
There is always safety in valor.
My father was a sailor and our summer vacations were always on a sailboat. I had a little boat before I had a moped.
I've always been a very careful sailor. I know, me and being careful - doesn't really sound right, does it? But when I sail, I take it seriously and take along spares for everything. You have to be careful when you're 1,500 miles from land. There's no one you can call. You're on your own.
We must always remember with gratitude and admiration the first sailors who steered their vessels through storms and mists, and increased our knowledge of the lands of ice in the South.
I wanted to make sure that 'Up' wasn't a 3D movie about a man who sails his house to South America. It's a movie about an old man who sails his house to South America that also happens to be in 3D. So the first thing is always the story.
Being Irish, I always had this love of words.
