I hope this doesn't sound pompous but I don't think of myself as famous whatever fame I've got has come through what I've done and associations of things I've done.

I didn't get hugely famous really quick. It was a slow gradual process so I was able to sort of grow into myself and figure out who I was and what I wanted without the glaring spotlight on me telling me who I was.

I don't know if this is the kind of retrospective analysis that people are fond of applying to their work or actions but it feels like I knew I was going to be famous and I knew that an element of that would be traumatic so that if I could make myself something big and otherworldly it would be a kind of defence.

I hear the way people talk about the children of famous people. They're not treated very well. The presumptions are usually quite awful. So I tried to establish myself with a couple of movies. After 'Juno' I thought: 'I think I've defined myself enough as my own director that I'd love to work with my father.'

The first time I went to Johnny Depp's house in LA is when I realized what I was getting myself into. I knew he was famous but I didn't really know what that entailed.

I would have been very happy just working from job to job paying my rent one movie at a time. I never wanted to be this famous. I never imagined this life for myself.

When I'm living in the world of luxury and celebrity which is where I found myself for a large part of my life it's a walk-on part. Not a vital necessity like it is for so many people. I enjoy it but I can see right through it!

I've worked with a lot of people who are more famous than myself who are terribly insecure.

I'd rather be able to face myself in the bathroom mirror than be rich and famous.

I've always been part of comedy. One of the things about our family was that if we were reasonably funny with each other particularly my two brothers and myself when my father was upset with something you'd want to make sure in some way you made him laugh. Because when he didn't laugh you were in trouble!

To me money is the ability to create lifelong experiences for my family and myself to educate my children and a way to give back to humanity.

I have a lot of responsibilities outside myself. I have a large family. I want to know I can always be helpful.

For me it's about the way I carry myself and the way I treat other people. My relationship and how I feel about God and what He does for me is something deeply personal. It's where I came from my family I was brought up in a religious household and that's very important to me.

Getting and keeping my immunity became very important to me. For I needed to take care of myself and my family. No one else was worried about me.

I contribute my best in my sport and I also have a ton of respect for myself and my family.

I'm an actor I'm not a politician. I always kick myself when I talk too much about family or personal things.

When I was working and when I was making substantial amounts of money I always filed and paid my taxes. This only stopped when it was necessary to withdraw from society in order to guarantee the safety and well-being of myself and my family.

I'm lucky to have family around me. Otherwise I'll be taking the risk of falling in love with myself.

I'm thankful for all the things that this job has given me and my family. But probably the thing that I am most proud of throughout my career is that not only myself but my family and the people around me have just been regular people which we are.

In my particular instance I came from a family that didn't have anything. Everything I earned in life I made. Myself. With songs that I wrote.

One if you attack my integrity I will defend myself. If you attack my patriotism I will defend myself. If you come after my family I will counter-attack viciously I will destroy you.

I get 0.5 seconds to react to a ball sometimes even less than that. I can't be thinking of what XYZ has said about me. I need to surrender myself to my natural instincts. My subconscious mind knows exactly what to do. It is trained to react. At home my family doesn't discuss media coverage.

I bought a lot of rubbish things that kids buy: skateboards and clothes and typical teenage stuff. And as soon as I could I wasted a lot of money on cars - BMW's mostly - for myself and my family.

My parents were French and Irish and our family even has Spanish blood-and I do so love the United States and consider myself part American.
