I love going to the beach and swimming in the ocean. I think it's so relaxing. It's also a great form of active recovery. It's perfect for those rest days when you still want to move a little bit.

I'm very hard on myself. Sometimes too hard on myself. When I lost in the Wimbledon finals, I was so sad, I cried. I had the runner-up trophy! It's still a great accomplishment, but I was so mad.

I don't really think dreams have real meaning. Some people believe in that. I just think it's your brain, after a day of crazy random pieces of information jumbled together, creating interesting stories. I just view it as entertainment.

Sometimes you just want to get away and be normal for a few days. It's a treat to travel without your racket bag.

People always love and respect characters who speak the truth, even if the truth hurts.

I'm always trying to perfect the romantic comedy, though.

The key is to get to know people and trust them to be who they are. Instead, we trust people to be who we want them to be - and when they're not, we cry.

It's not someone else's responsibility to honor my marriage. It's my responsibility.

Well, I still write poetry, but I wouldn't call myself a poet.

Fame does lead to money, which I don't have a close relationship with. I'm the kind of guy who never sees the money - it all goes somewhere else. I don't understand it, I don't like to deal with it. I have a fear of not having it, because I grew up without it.

I love the ocean, wide-open space and trees, but I'm not a gardener or anything like that. I think I may be, eventually. I was raised in the city, so I don't have that skill set, but my heart is more with the dirt than the concrete. It's an unrequited love with nature - a one-way love affair.

I'm constantly amazed by the ability a child has to show sympathy, to read emotions, to get to the heart of any situation. It's unfiltered and completely inspiring.

There are certain things I learned when I first started learning about acting, to try and place the character physically and emotionally. And the way you place them emotionally is often with humor.

The happiest moment of my life was probably when my daughter was born.

I love dogs. They live in the moment and don't care about anything except affection and food. They're loyal and happy. Humans are just too damn complicated.

I'm very happy being me, although sometimes I'd love to be a bird so that I could fly.

In modeling, I had to learn to like myself, to love myself, to feel comfortable.

I spent my whole single life trying to be thin just to find someone who'd love me once I got fat.

The way I see it, love is an amusement park, and food its souvenir.

In almost every profession - whether it's law or journalism, finance or medicine or academia or running a small business - people rely on confidential communications to do their jobs. We count on the space of trust that confidentiality provides. When someone breaches that trust, we are all worse off for it.

America is stronger because of President Obama's leadership, and I'm better because of his friendship.

There is a sense that things, if you keep positive and optimistic about what can be done, do work out.

We don't have enough support for maternal leave and the kinds of things that some of the European countries do. So we still make it hard on women to go into the work force and feel that they can be good at work but then doing the most important job, which is raising your children in a responsible and positive way.

I would be delighted if the United States could have a positive relationship with Russia, and I would be thrilled if the Russian people, who are so capable, had a normal country that they could chart a different future.

I think we have to face the reality that in a society where there is a legitimate threat of terrorism, not being able to see one's face, not being able to have some sense of communication in that way, is for many societies a challenge.

Every nation has to either be with us, or against us. Those who harbor terrorists, or who finance them, are going to pay a price.

One of the reasons this election is so important is because the Supreme Court hangs in the balance. We need to overturn that terrible Supreme Court decision, Citizens United, and then reform our whole campaign finance system.

In the Bible it says they asked Jesus how many times you should forgive, and he said 70 times 7. Well, I want you all to know that I'm keeping a chart.

Forgiveness is a way of opening up the doors again and moving forward, whether it's a personal life or a national life.

I am 100% in the camp that says forgiveness is mostly about the forgiver.

Freedom means the right of people to assemble, organize, and debate openly.

If you're not comfortable with public speaking - and nobody starts out comfortable; you have to learn how to be comfortable - practice. I cannot overstate the importance of practicing. Get some close friends or family members to help evaluate you, or somebody at work that you trust.

You cannot have maternal health without reproductive health. And reproductive health includes contraception and family planning and access to legal, safe abortion.

Twenty years ago, I wrote a book called 'It Takes a Village.' And a lot of people looked at the title and asked, 'What the heck do you mean by that?' This is what I mean. None of us can raise a family, build a business, heal a community or lift a country totally alone.

Let's not leave an educational vacuum to be filled by religious extremists who go to families who have no other option and offer meals, housing and some form of education. If we are going to combat extremism then we must educate those very same children.

In nearly every religion I am aware of, there is a variation of the golden rule. And even for the non-religious, it is a tenet of people who believe in humanistic principles.

This is what we call smart power. Using every possible tool and partner to advance peace and security. Leaving no one on the sidelines. Showing respect even for one's enemies. Trying to understand, in so far as psychologically possible, empathize with their perspective and point of view. Helping to define the problems, determine the solutions.

I, for one, respect those who believe with all their hearts and conscience that there are no circumstances under which any abortion should ever be available.

With respect to Iraq, I did favour the continuity of American forces to work with the new Maliki government. They had enormous needs for intelligence, for training on everything from airplanes to more sophisticated ground equipment and the like.

I respect the Congress's oversight responsibility.

You don't walk away if you love someone. You help the person.

My wish for the new millennium is for all children... to grow up wiser, and stronger and more prosperous for the future than ever before.

I feel very blessed to have a partner in life who supports me, who is enthusiastic about what I want to do, who has been a great father, and who will be a fabulous grandfather.

I've had extraordinary good luck with my health, other than a broken elbow.

In the aftermath of September 11, and as the 9/11 Commission report so aptly demonstrates, it is clear that our intelligence system is not working the way that it should.

I helped to restore America's leadership.

I want to teach. I want to speak. I want to travel.

I have not supported same-sex marriage. I have supported civil partnerships and contractual relationships.

Every marriage is a mystery to me, even the one I'm in. So I'm no expert on it.

Well I think in a marriage you have to be honest and ask yourself, you know, what is my role? What is my responsibility?
