Being an actor means asking people to look at you. I guess I accept that. But it's a profession in which the job is to show another world and other people. You may access it through bits of yourself and your imagination and experience but actually in the end you're not playing yourself.

There's probably no experience more alienating than fame other than a terminal illness where you actually find yourself in a situation that nobody around you can relate to.

One of the things about equality is not just that you be treated equally to a man but that you treat yourself equally to the way you treat a man.

The supreme lesson of any education should be to think for yourself and to be yourself absent this attainment education creates dangerous stupefying conformity.

But to me the bottom line is the more education you can give yourself and the more preparation you can do the less chance of failing.

I'm not convinced that women have the education or the sense of their own history enough or that they understand the cruelty of which men are capable and the delight that many men will take in seeing you choose to chain yourself - then they get to say 'See you did it yourself.'

Apply yourself. Get all the education you can but then by God do something. Don't just stand there make it happen.

The most valuable of all education is the ability to make yourself do the thing you have to do when it has to be done whether you like it or not.

You can educate yourself right out of a relationship with God.

Tell me about yourself - your struggles your dreams your telephone number.

Dreams really tell you about yourself more than anything else in this world could ever tell you.

Do It Under the Influence Yourself! That's what we're shooting for! Get drunk and make your dreams come true.

'Do What You Gotta Do' is a positive inspirational song that says no matter what it is whether you're up against challenges or trying to get your dreams and aspirations met you should do what whatever you have to do shy of killing yourself or someone else.

I think when you're in a relationship where you really care for the other person when they achieve their dreams it's better than when you do yourself.

Never let life impede on your ability to manifest your dreams. Dig deeper into your dreams and deeper into yourself and believe that anything is possible and make it happen.

Follow your dreams believe in yourself and don't give up.

Keep your dreams alive. Understand to achieve anything requires faith and belief in yourself vision hard work determination and dedication. Remember all things are possible for those who believe.

Believe in love. Believe in magic. Hell believe in Santa Clause. Believe in others. Believe in yourself. Believe in your dreams. If you don't who will?

Consult not your fears but your hopes and your dreams. Think not about your frustrations but about your unfulfilled potential. Concern yourself not with what you tried and failed in but with what it is still possible for you to do.

Dream and give yourself permission to envision a You that you choose to be.

If you take responsibility for yourself you will develop a hunger to accomplish your dreams.

If I could give one tip for people - it's not an exercise or nutrition regimen. It's to walk your talk and believe in yourself because at the end of the day the dumbbell and diet don't get you in shape. It's your accountability to your word.

I was a vegan for two years and I really enjoyed it. Then I got to a point in my life at which I wanted to do something else so now I'm a vegetarian. You should make your diet one that best fits you and how you feel. Listen to your body. The most important thing is to exercise drink lots of water and take really good care of yourself.

But I don't do the diet thing anymore. I'm a big believer in feeding your body what it needs. Deny yourself something and you're going to end up shoving your face full of it.
