I've always been DJing; it's just I'm making more of a push for it, making it more public.

Every leading lady I work with, I'll see if I can get a song out of them and put it on an album.

Being able to work with Ridley Scott on this film is like being able to play on the Olympic team for actors.

There's a fast-track if you can do the networking. For some personalities it works, but for mine it doesn't.

If you go to Africa and you're white, you're probably not going to get that much work either. But the fact is that there is a longer history of black integration in the U.S. I don't have any resentment about this: I did the maths, calculated it against my ambition and decided to leave England.

Disneyland is a work of love. We didn't go into Disneyland just with the idea of making money.

Of all the things I've done, the most vital is coordinating those who work with me and aiming their efforts at a certain goal.

I used to love it when I walked down the street and construction workers would whistle.

"Never give up. Today is hard, tomorrow will be worse, but the day after tomorrow will be sunshine."

"You should learn from your competitor, but never copy. Copy and you die."

The mould of a man's fortune is in his own hands.

A work of art that contains theories is like an object on which the price tag has been left.

It's not like I'm dying to do work that's taken seriously, and I'm not looking to become a thespian. It's not what I'm looking for; I'm just looking to do quality work.

The insurance of working with a big, already successful franchise just gives you the chance to do other things on a more personal level.

I really enjoyed working with Guy Ritchie. One, it gave me a career, and two, they're probably a couple of the best films I've ever done.

I've been unfortunate enough to be working, and recovering from a few injuries now and again.

A lot of the TV shows, they do long hours, and they do a lot of days, and you don't get a lot of time. But the good thing is, if you get one that's made in L.A., or made in a place you want to be, you get to go home every night.

The worst situation you can have in a thriller is a lead who looks like he can handle himself.

I take my work seriously.

“Effort is measured by setting goals and getting results.”

I don't say: 'can't do that', 'won't do that'. I've never thought in that way about work.

“Creating opportunities means looking where others are not.”

“Work like there is someone working twenty-four hours a day to take it all away from you.”

If you're smart you're just gonna be all about the work. But as a young person, you want to going out to clubs and doing all the stuff. I'm just glad I survived it.
