I'm healthy have a loving and adorable family great hunting dogs a gravity defying musical career and most importantly fuzzy-headed idiots hate me.

Everything I have my career my success my family I owe to America.

But the problem is that when I go around and speak on campuses I still don't get young men standing up and saying 'How can I combine career and family?'

I have frequently been questioned especially by women of how I could reconcile family life with a scientific career. Well it has not been easy.

I do believe that belief is the most powerful thing we have in this world. So if we believe in something enough. And we have faith we can make it a reality. That is basically the basis of my entire career and my entire life.

In my career as an actor there is a catchphrase that Scofield always says often in regards to his brother 'Have a little faith.' In my own career as an actor there were times when I was the only one who believed in myself in the face of the odds.

I still have a belief and a faith that some great things are still going to happen in my career. If I didn't believe that it makes no sense for me to be out there and on top of that I know this is a period of time that God wants me to persevere through.

Sometimes you learn more from failure than you do from success and in some ways it's better to have failure at the beginning of your career or your life.

My film directorial career has been nothing but repetition of one failure after another!

I've learned to think in terms of having a long career. Actors can have very long careers that last until the day we die but there will be moments when you'll feel like you're a failure or when you're disappointed in yourself.
