Happiness does not come from football awards. It's terrible to correlate happiness with football. Happiness comes from a good job being able to feed your wife and kids. I don't dream football I dream the American dream - two cars in a garage be a happy father.

My mother used to tell me man gives the award God gives the reward. I don't need another plaque.

I liked getting the best villain award. I thought that was funny.

It's funny that it all becomes about clothes. It's bizarre. You work your butt off and then you win an award and it's all about your dress. You can't get away from it.

Great big serious novels always get awards. If it's a battle between a great big serious novel and a funny novel the funny novel is doomed.

No matter how popular you are as a stand-up - you can go out and fill a 10 000-seat arena and be smart and funny - it's delicate to host an awards show and know where your place is and know that it's not about you that it's about the people who are nominated and respect that but at the same time have your moment to show them who you are.

I don't deserve this award but I have arthritis and I don't deserve that either.

My goals have changed throughout my life. At one time it was winning awards selling out concert dates selling more albums than anyone else. Now my goals are to see my grandchildren grown live a long and healthy life with my family and friends and travel the world.

I feel like if I won an award and I was giving my speech and the music started that's all I'd remember the humiliation I felt when the music started. It would mar the entire experience for me.

An Academy Award nomination is stuff dreams are made of.

Things with my dad were pretty good until I won an Academy Award. He was really loving to me until I got more attention than he did. Then he hated me.

I've never won an award for anything and I think it's weird. I mean that's really cool but it's strange to think you could get an award for acting. I always thought that was strange.

Most of an award-show host's job is showing up and keeping a cool head and soldiering through it whether it's the Oscars or the Hallmark Channel's 'Hero Dog Awards.'

Some people work hard in this business and become really popular really big stars but they never receive an award from within the business. Somehow when your colleagues and friends believe in you to the point of handing you an award it means so much more.

Just because you've made a couple movies you've done some good movies you've been nominated for some Academy Awards whatever nobody's entitled. It's a business. If they don't see it I can think they're wrong but I'm not entitled to a $15 million budget to make a film.

There's a lot of great movies that have won the Academy Award and a lot of great movies that haven't. You just do the best you can.

I don't know if it has set in or not. Honestly it's crazy. It's such an amazing honor. I remember thinking back to being in my room waiting for the call to see if I got the part. It's like winning the lottery. I'm proud to be a member of such an amazing cast - that's the best award of all.

Well it was the beginning of my film career. It was amazing to me that I got nominated for an Academy Award.

The Academy Awards was an amazing night. I know I kind of lost my mind a little bit. I apologize for that. That night went so fast I can't remember what I said or what happened.

You get moments all the time that kind of make you pinch yourself some of them make you quite emotional. Winning a BRIT was a big moment because we were just so excited to be at the awards in the first place. Selling out Madison Square Garden was pretty amazing too. Then we woke to the news that our UK tour was sold out. It was crazy.

I'd said to my sweetheart a couple of days before that the SAG and Spirit Award nomination was amazing and I had no attachment to the Academy Award. I knew I was an underdog so I just decided to sleep through the announcement.

I never knew I'd be in a musical let alone win an award for one.
