Nothing had been attempted like that, to lift Dad’s voice, literally, off of that track and put it on a brand-new one, and then line it up, match it up, get the phrasing right. I remember listening – everyone listening at the end, and we were just enthralled. It was really wonderful.

I’m an athlete, so I can get up one day and run and it wouldn’t bother me. I don’t get the time because I work for long hours every day. Being constantly on the move itself helps me stay fit.

I can lift weights every day and I’m not going to look huge, but it’s good to get in the weight room every now and then.

Taxing poor families runs counter to decades of effort to help people lift themselves out of poverty through work.
Acting is like lifting a 400-pound feather. It’s a feather, how hard could it be? And yet, you go to lift it and it’s heavy. For that reason, I love it, because it’s very hard and difficult and challenging and obviously I want to learn more.
