The forbidden things were a great influence on my life. I was forbidden from reading A Catcher in the Rye. ↗

I also thought of playing improvisational jazz and I did take lessons for a while. At first I tried to write fiction by making up things that were completely alien to my life. ↗

That was a wonderful period in my life. I mean, I didn't become an artist, but somebody let me do something I loved. What a luxury, to do something you love to do. ↗

I have loved movies as the number one thing in my life so long that I can't ever remember a time when I didn't. ↗

I can't do the same movies all my life. I'm conscious of that. But it's a trade-off. 'Dear John' allowed me to do movies I've wanted to do. You learn to balance it out. I'm still learning. Only now am I getting to do the kinds of movies that I have wanted to do. So it's a steady climb. You don't jump into a Soderbergh film. ↗

I thought, I'm only going to be on this planet once, and only for a short time. What can I do with my life that will lead to permanent benefits? ↗

I am a sportsman and not a politician. I am a sportsman and will always remain one. I am not going to enter politics giving up cricket, which is my life. I will continue to play cricket. ↗

My dog and two cats are such a vital part of my life. To say that I am their owner doesn't reflect at all the profound bond and responsibility that I have towards them. ↗

There is a very good chance I could have been a screw-up for the rest of my life. ↗
