I wanted to travel with my dad to be close to him again. Having babies and raising my own family took so much of my time I didn't have a chance to be with him very often.

You know when everyone's watching your mom and dad your friends in high school who thought they were better than you. You get your chance to get in the spotlight and shine.

My mom and dad worked very hard to give me the best chance in - not just in golf but in life. You know I was an only child you know my dad worked three jobs at one stage. My mom worked night shifts in a factory.

The criteria for serving one's country should be competence courage and willingness to serve. When we deny people the chance to serve because of their sexual orientation we deprive them of their rights of citizenship and we deprive our armed forces the service of willing and capable Americans.

Take chances make mistakes. That's how you grow. Pain nourishes your courage. You have to fail in order to practice being brave.

If you're a kid who's not necessarily attractive and you don't have money and you're not hip and cool chances are you're not going to feel good about yourself and want to be an actor.

Above all film is a business... Independence is a really cool thing as you can be a bit more bold and take a few more chances with what you do.

I got a chance to have my dream come true and I wanted to make sure I made the decision as to when I dropped my last album. If I don't feel like this album is an incredible piece of work then I'm cool with the albums I've done. I don't have to put out another album.

I don't care what other people think as long as I am happy. The day I die or retire I have blown all my chances because I don't have the chance any more to change my image as an F1 driver.

As a rock star I have two instincts I want to have fun and I want to change the world. I have a chance to do both.

We all have big changes in our lives that are more or less a second chance.

I swear my car won't run unless I'm picking my nose: At least I'm that superstitious about it so I don't want to take any chances.

But now I realize that this record business really needs me. No one else is trying to take a chance or do something different.

Seems to me that this business for actors anyway is not so much about whether or not you do good work. It's about whether or not you get the chance to do good work.

I do love television. But the business is accelerating and people are not getting the chance to fail.

I do not want to admit to the world that I can be a bad person. It is just that I don't want anyone to have false expectations. Moviemaking is a harsh volatile business and unless you can be ruthless too there's a good chance that you are going to disappear off the scene pretty quickly.
