I've always loved music but I never really played anything. After 'Walk the Line' and learning to play guitar and having that sense of performing I think that certainly opened the door for me for music.

To be proud of learning is the greatest ignorance.

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 have no control over what people think of me but I have 100% control of what I think of myself and that is so important. And not just about your body but so many ways of confidence. You're constantly learning how to be confident aren't you?

I've had a tough time learning how to act like a congressman. Today I accidentally spent some of my own money.

All are agreed that the increase of learning and good morals are great blessings to society.

I'm learning to accept the lack of privacy as the real downer in my profession.

I grow old learning something new every day.

I feel the older I get the more I'm learning to handle life. Being on this quest for a long time it's all about finding yourself.

I am growing and learning. There's so much more that I want to accomplish and do. I'm gonna do it at whatever pace it happens. I'm not trying to rush anything or slow anything down.
