“When we are generous in welcoming people and sharing something with them-some food, a place in our homes, our time-not only do we no longer remain poor: we are enriched. I am well aware that when someone needing food knocks at your door, you always find a way of sharing food; as the proverb says, one can always 'add more water to the beans'! Is it possible to add more water to the beans?...Always?...And you do so with love, demonstrating that true riches consist not in materials things, but in the heart!”
“For lack of a better word, acting is therapeutic. You really are breaking down barriers, exorcising demons and finding more out about yourself.”
“I try to support groups that are about educating people about different races, different religions, different cultures and different situations so that we can break down the barriers of prejudice and bigotry.”
“As an actor, to play someone who's at war with himself, that's so interesting.”
“Do you know the difference between an optimist and a pessimist? A pessimist says â€˜Oh dear, things canâ€™t possibly get any worse.â€™ And an optimist says, â€˜Donâ€™t be so sad. Things can always get worse.”
“For all my longer works (i.e. the novels) I write chapter outlines so I can have the pleasure of departing from them later on.”
“Imagine an eye unruled by man-made laws of perspective, an eye unprejudiced by compositional logic, an eye which does not respond to the name of everything but which must know each object encountered in life through an adventure of perception. How many colors are there in a field of grass to the crawling baby unaware of â€˜Green?â€™ How many rainbows can light create for the untutored eye?”

“It may sound strange, but many champions are made champions by setback. They are champions because they've been hurt. Their experience moved them, and they pulled out this fighting spirit, making them what they are. Sometimes in life, God gives us a difficulty in order to bring out the fighting spirit. Everything that happens to you can happen for good if you have this spirit. The essential thing in life is not in the conquering, but in the fight.”
