One morning about four o'clock I was driving my car just about as fast as I could. I thought Why am I out this time of night? I was miserable and it came to me: I'm falling in love with somebody I have no right to fall in love with.

I am so sick of reading about another car bomb another suicide bomber another 10 20 30 70 100 people dead in a day both Americans and Iraqis.

Sometimes I wish I could drive a car but I'm gonna drive a car one day so I don't worry about that.

I swear my car won't run unless I'm picking my nose: At least I'm that superstitious about it so I don't want to take any chances.

When life was worrying about a car payment or a rent payment and a bill you're so consumed with that you really don't have time to know yourself. That's surviving and getting by.

The irony is that it was tougher to rent a car from Cerberus when it owned Alamo than to buy a semi-automatic. To rent a car one had to provide ID a drivers' license and get insurance coverage. To buy a gun? Cash and carry from the back of a station wagon at a gun show. No concerns about downstream liability or risk.

Food is not just what we put in our mouths to fill up it is culture and identity. Reason plays some role in our decisions about food but it's rarely driving the car.

You can find out anything you want about a car now and especially every bit of information about the price without relying on the dealers.

Having played many roles of scientific intellect I do have an empathy for that world. It's been hard on me because flying the Enterprise for seven years in Star Trek and sitting in Cerebro in X-men has led people to believe that I know what I'm talking about. But I'm still trying to work out how to operate the air conditioning unit on my car.

To this day I am the least materialistic person I know because my father didn't raise me to just go out and buy this or that car. The only reason I wanted to make money as an actor was because I'm passionate about food!
