I am a Catholic, not so committed to the church, but to the idea of the Virgin, the female face of God.
I am a Catholic.
I am a Catholic because I choose to be a Catholic. And then I go to the Mass because I choose. It is out of my free will.
If I should say anything that is not in conformity with what is held by the Holy Roman Catholic Church, it will be through ignorance and not through malice. This may be taken as certain, and also that, through God's goodness, I am, and shall always be, as I always have been, subject to her.
Though I do regard the Inquisition in general and the burning of Giordano Bruno in particular as blots on the history of the Roman Catholic Church, I am far from being actuated by hatred of that church, and in fact cannot imagine that European civilization would have developed or survived without it.
Being that I was raised in the Catholic faith, I am very careful about what I choose. I've turned down a lot of projects that... could have helped me a lot financially, and I've quit shows because of where they were going and because I feel like I have to be a role model for my kids.
I am and have always been a strong proponent of public education. But by the virtue of its very nature - publicly funded schools cannot offer the type of spiritual education that Catholic schools have long provided.
Nick is 11 and a half years younger than I am, so his mom is only, like, 11 or 12 years older than me. I didn't call her Mrs. Offerman because that would be weird because we're, like, the same age, so I think I went straight to Cathy, but there's a mom element, and his parents are so great.
I am fond of pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals.
I believe cats to be spirits come to earth. A cat, I am sure, could walk on a cloud without coming through.
I felt like I wasn't considered for minority or Caucasian male lead roles. There aren't really a lot of roles written for me, and I mean me and who I am in real life.
I thought, I need to be more cautious about my choices - it reflects on who I am.
I am really cautious about what I say and do.
I'm not that tough; I'm not that smart. I need life telling me who I am, showing me my mind constantly. I wouldn't see it in a cave.
The day when I am no more than a writer I shall cease to be a writer.
If a motive affects me, and I am compelled to act on it because it proves to be the 'strongest' of its kind, then the thought of freedom ceases to have any meaning. How should it matter to me whether I can do a thing or not, if I am forced by the motive to do it?
I try to bring all that I am to my work and all that I experience. That includes how people react to the way I am - the prejudice and the celebrations.
I am truly a product of Hollywood in-breeding. When two celebrities mate, someone like me is the result.
In the United States, I am a great success, but I am not a celebrity.
I find celebrity status difficult to bear when I am in the company of my mother.
