Quotes

• When you're a father, you know exactly where your heart really is. There's no question of it, no doubt. That part of your life has no second guessing.
• Trying different things is very important to me. I see people and want to wear their clothes and drive in their cars for awhile. That's probably one reason I became an actor.
• But a woman will only understand a man up to a certain point. There's a limit to it.
• I think it's better for the picture to have as much of me as it can. But I also cherish getting down and doing some acting.
• I think we're struggling with trying to redefine various positions at this point in history. To allow freedom for women, freedom for men, freedom from those sharply defined gender roles.
• I was just talking about women, just in terms of understanding them as much as we can ever understand the opposite sex. I'm trying to let go of certain male approaches to things that you inherit, that you grow up with.
• (About Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins]): I'm not a hero about stunts, but I want to put my movement into it whenever I can. I do lots of fighting, climbing, hanging and swinging around.
• My career has been a bit strange. I don't think it took the normal route.
• There was always a creative impulse in me but I never felt rooted to anything.
• There's nothing like castrating 20 pigs before lunch. I did that during school whenever the need arose. They'd call out the agricultural class and put us in trucks to go help the local farmers.
• Sometimes life comes and hits you in the face like a tire iron...And sometimes, a world of plastic surgery will still be unable to fix the damage.
• Tremors 2 Quotes (Best movie ever): "You smoked his ass!"; "You like that, huh?"; "Look! (slams fridge door) No way!"; "So, uh.... (insert all of his lines here)"; "Who are you? And why are you so dumb?!"; "So what? A man can shave, can't he?"; "Size-mo-jigger"
