A coach once told me there are four factors that determine a players' performance: his tactical awareness his physical condition his technical ability and his mental strength.

The biological factors underlying race differences in sports have consequences for educational achievement crime and sexual behavior.

Well if I hadn't have been an actor I would have gone on to play college sports.

One of the reasons I'm an actor is because I was no physical specimen as a child. I wasn't athletic and didn't have any prowess in that regard. Growing up in Kentucky most little boys were trying to get into sports and it was very competitive so that was not to be. But I did want to do something.

I like every single actor or actress in the world because we never know what the conditions are like when they are working. I give everyone the benefit of the doubt and root for them like a psychotic sports fan.

I've been a sports fan all my life and like most other actors I'm convinced I could have been a pro athlete if Hollywood hadn't come calling.

I've always thought of acting as a tool to change society. I watch a lot of actors and I see panic in their eyes because they don't know why they act and I know why I act. Whether I'm a good or a bad actor I know why I do it.

I'll never look down on and I love running into actors who say 'Oh yeah I did a soap.' I say 'Tell me which one!' It's like being a member of a secret society.

The labor of women in the house certainly enables men to produce more wealth than they otherwise could and in this way women are economic factors in society. But so are horses.

What is missing from today's dialogue is the effect autism is having on families our society and what the unknown factors are. The 300lb. gorilla in the room is that our children with autism today will soon become adults with autism.

You see some of these actors they have a permanent smile on their face. How can they do that? It really fascinates me.

Weapons of mass destruction aren't pulled out of a black hat like a white rabbit at a magic show. They're produced in factories. There's science and technology involved. They're not produced in a hole in the ground or in a basement.

A successful society is characterized by a rising living standard for its population increasing investment in factories and basic infrastructure and the generation of additional surplus which is invested in generating new discoveries in science and technology.

I didn't understand how you could be an actor if you didn't also study philosophy and study political science astronomy. And also just go out and live life and have experiences.

I used to sit near Marilyn Monroe in the Actor's Studio. She'd get dressed up because that was her identity. Sad. Those cameras wouldn't leave her alone. She didn't know where to hide.

All the things that happen to people in the industry today the actors what they have to put up with all the people wanting to know every single moment of their lives - I think it's really sad.

My father comes from a generation of film that actors my age don't even know about which is really sad.
