I was surprised to see so many fans recognized me when I visited Japan on a personal trip. I think fans like me because of my healthy, bright, and cheerful energy.
Well, you know, it’s really been, you know, quite a trip for me.
Too many actors get on an ego trip and won’t do commercials, so they sit around for 20 years between jobs.
When I occasionally indulge in sort of a ‘look back’ at highlights, it’s so interesting – it almost never comes from an image on a set or even the Academy Awards. It’s almost always a family trip or meeting and falling in love with Cheryl.
I love a girls’ trip, what can I say?
On a two week road trip I know I can get by better with no underwear than no laptop.
I read Tolkien when I was 11. I read ‘The Hobbit’ and the trilogy on a road trip with my family. I identified with the nonhumans in those books, and it never occurred to me why that was.
Once, in high school, on a field trip away from school, some girls brought razors to shave their legs and threw them at me and told me to kill myself. But they were all insecure. They were angry, snapping at everybody.

Like many American millennials, an 8th grade field trip first brought me into contact with the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum.

I’ve wept for Haiti a thousand times over the years since my first trip during the Duvalier reign.
I gave up my fur coats years ago – what an ego trip, walking around wearing cut-up animals. Besides, fur coats don’t last. I’d rather have diamonds.
They were looking for someone to play the neighbor of the Jeffersons. I thought it would be a nice trip to Los Angeles. When you get a call like that, you don’t expect much to come of it.
When I found ‘New Chain’ by Col3trane, honestly, I couldn’t stop playing it. It’s a good road trip song because the beat just drives on.
Being away a lot on tour means that my family has to suffer an inordinate amount of overcompensation, as I return home with skewed ideas of what counts as quality time. I will force everyone into a cinema trip, insistent that three hours in the dark in silence is the perfect way for us all to re-engage.
I always take a trip someplace warm, and the Caribbean is my favorite place to travel for some sun.
I’ve actually had a copilot come out of the cockpit on a trip from L.A. to New York and ask me about Charles Manson.
When Cuba Gooding Jr. and I were doing ‘The Trip to Bountiful,’ we would always go to BXL, a Belgian restaurant/bar. It was across the street from the theater, and they have amazing mussels.
There’s something so satisfying about road trip movies – and books!
Whenever I have a little time off, I try to go back to my farm in South Africa. I’ll spend time with my family and hunt antelope, kudu and springbok. During a 2010 hunting trip, I tore some ligaments in my ankle when I stepped in a hole.
Don’t get me wrong – I’ve gone to a club. But I’d much rather be with my close friends at home or a concert, or on a trip. I’ll go dancing with my grandma. She likes to cut a rug!
The longest road trip I’ve ever been on is from Minnesota to Los Angeles.
You can find me at three in the morning in my living room with a glass of wine and really bad ’90s trip hop beats blaring from my headphones.
I’m about to start working with a singer I met on my last trip: she’ll get international exposure, and I’ll have a song out in that market sung in Cantonese.
An art project, a hands-on science experiment, or a special field trip can transcend textbooks and flash cards. No one knows this better than those teaching students with autism.
Courage and willingness to just go for it, whether it is a conversation or a spontaneous trip or trying new things that are scary – it is a really attractive quality.
What I’ve learned about acting is that it needs to be mysterious. If you overthink how a beat needs to be played, it can trip you up.

I was exceptionally opinionated as a teenager, never afraid to rant and ruin a birthday party or cinema trip.
I went for a six-month trip around the world on a shoestring budget.
When I was a kid, every field trip was to some Roman fort because it was cheap and free.
I took Laura on a trip once where we followed the Immigrant Trail for about six hundred miles. She really learned a lesson. People forget too often how it was back then.
I’m told that as a child, when my dad was alive, I’d get up, put on my coat and go sit in the back of his car. The driver would just go around the neighborhood – as long as I had my little trip, I was happy.
Starting in my late 20s, I would go on one fishing trip a year to an exotic location. I went to India and caught what was essentially a giant carp. I went to Thailand and got myself arrested as a suspected spy. I went to the Congo and got malaria. But even the bad stuff is material.
Sooner or later you must move down an unknown road that leads beyond the range of the imagination, and the only certainty is that the trip has to be made.
When I left school I went on trip around the world – I only got as far as Australia, but like a bloody fool I cut it short because of a girl. It’s probably one of my big regrets in life.
It started in middle school. Once, a group of girls locked me in the janitor’s closet. Another time, a girl spilled chocolate milk down a dress I made. Girls would try to trip me in the hallway.
As you get older, your skin tone will change, and that means the colours that suit you best change, too. Take a trip to a department store and ask for advice, or simply hold colours close to your face in the mirror, as this should give you a good idea of what works.
Brits love a road trip supporting a British fighter.
In this respect early youth is exactly like old age; it is a time of waiting for a big trip to an unknown destination. The chief difference is that youth waits for the morning limited and age waits for the night train.
I think I get my alone time when I have to go fly and do a work trip. After work’s done, I go check into my hotel, and I get to have a few hours to myself to order room service and just be quiet and silent.
I wish we could all have a telling room, a place where we go to tell our stories and listen to the stories of others; in our culture, the telling room might be around the dinner table or in the car on a long trip.
If I had to get lost in a fictional world? I would love to go with those Hemingway characters in ‘The Sun Also Rises’ when they go on that trip in Spain, and they go fishing. And they take the wine bottles, and they put them in the river.
Whom do you feel sorrier for: the cast of ‘Boat Trip’ or their children? Remember, kids can be very cruel – and this latest ‘get Cuba Gooding Jr. career counseling fast’ project is a misfire from beginning to end.
It’s not the things you don’t know that trip you up. It’s the things you think you know, but you don’t. You fail to ask a certain question because you believe you know the answer. Separating your information from your assumptions can be very tricky business.
If you looked at my iPod, you would get a trip out of all the different music, from the real heavy metal to bluegrass to classical.
In 2007, I did a horseback trip across part of central Mongolia with my 13-year-old son – we encountered Marco Polo at all these historical places where Mongolian nomads would reference his accounts and his relationship with Kublai Khan.
Wearing underwear on the outside of your clothes can turn a tedious trip to the store for a forgotten carton of milk into an amusement park romp.
Looking back at my life’s voyage, I can only say that it has been a golden trip.
Our incomes are like our shoes; if too small, they gall and pinch us; but if too large, they cause us to stumble and to trip.
For me, summer holidays, vacations, New Year, and any trip away from Bengaluru meant going to Goa. My mother is from there.
A trip to Tel Aviv is a ritual. I always wear the same clothes to Tel Aviv: black pants and a blue-checked shirt that I bought especially from Ralph Lauren.
I’ve yet to use a cellphone, and I’ve never tweeted or entered Facebook. I try not to go online till my day’s writing is finished, and I moved from Manhattan to rural Japan in part so I could more easily survive for long stretches entirely on foot, and every trip to the movies would be an event.
My philosophy on snow skiing is that there are less expensive ways to fall down a mountain. Yet every couple of years, I go on a ski trip for the same reason that women will have multiple children – they simply forget how much it hurts.
The IRS targeting certain groups for harassment because of their politics would be unfair. If we found out the NSA was keeping special tabs on everyone who worshiped at a mosque or took a Bible trip through the Middle East, you’d have an uprising.
It was work as well as play while shooting for ‘Ishq Vishq’ in South Africa. What made the trip more enjoyable was our energetic and fun-loving director Ken Ghosh, who hung out with the cast a lot.
