My best background is, like, smash opponents. I all the time go forward. I all the time try to take down somebody. Make him give up. This is my style, you know. This is what I do all my life.
It's not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters.
None of us are immune to grief, and everyone who has suffered loss understands that grief changes, but you never wake up one morning and you've moved on. It stays with you, and, you know, you ebb and flow.
No matter how good you are, at some point your kids are gonna have to create their own independence and think that Mom and Dad aren't cool, just to establish themselves. That's what adolescence is about. They're gonna go through that no matter what.
You can have whatever you want if you believe in yourself and keep your feet firmly planted in the ground.
Luck is a dividend of sweat. The more you sweat, the luckier you get.
If you have the opportunity to play this game of life you need to appreciate every moment. A lot of people don't appreciate the moment until it's passed.
Recession is when a neighbor loses his job. Depression is when you lose yours.
If you can reach out and touch and love and be with wildlife, you will forever be changed, and you will want to make the world a better place.
There is just one thing I can promise you about the outer-space program — your tax-dollar will go further.
Life is like a game of cards. The hand you are dealt is determinism; the way you play it is free will.
People in the street will either call me 'Prime Minister' or 'Justin'. We'll see how that goes. But when I'm working, when I'm with my staff in public, I'm 'Prime Minister'. I say that if we're drinking beer out of a bottle, and you can see my tattoos, you should be comfortable calling me 'Justin'.
It always surprises me how much my followers appreciate how candid my photos are — they may not have a particularly unique subject, but it's more about the light you shed on the subject than the subject itself.
I think it's important to find the little things in everyday life that make you happy.
There are certain wicked people in the world that you can't deal with except by force.
I realized that comedians of the day were operating on jokes and punch lines. The moment you say the punch line, the audience either laughs sincerely or they laugh automatically or they don't laugh. The thing that bothered me was that automatic laugh. I said, that's not real laughter.
Do not overrate what you have received, nor envy others. He who envies others does not obtain peace of mind.
If you represent a fantasy for the people who actually go to the cinema, they grab that and go with it; therefore, for the rest of their lives, they actually identify you with a certain thinking — a certain philosophy. There are many actors who want to pursue that same thought in real life as well, and that's perfectly acceptable.
I'm not an example for how people should live their lives. Never in my life would I ever set out to be an example for people on how to live their lives. If you need an example for how to live, then you just shouldn't have been born. Straight up.
