"From an early age I didn't buy into the value systems of working hard in a nine-to-five job. I thought creativity, friendship and loyalty and pushing the boundaries of what was acceptable was much more interesting."

"I was drawn to things I thought were either sexy or aggressive - or both."

"Unless man is committed to the belief that all mankind are his brothers, then he labors in vain and hypocritically in the vineyards of equality."

"If you believe in a cause, you must be willing to put yourself on the line for that cause."

"You can't make assumptions when you're dealing with health issues."

"For us there's U2 music, and then there's everything else."

"A man's respect for law and order exists in precise relationship to the size of his paycheck."

"The drums tell me everything. Everything else registers a millisecond later."

"Men should not be forced to wear pants when it's not cold."

"I don't think rock 'n roll is necessarily a young man's game. I think Neil Young is just as rock'n'roll now as he was in his 20s. I'd like to think we can still be edgy and challenging."

"It's very confusing when fame comes early on in your career. You get a little bit bent out of shape in terms of what's important. Fame is like the dessert that comes with your achievements - it's not an achievement in itself, but sometimes it can overpower the work."

"I've never necessarily chosen to be a bachelor. I've had girlfriends throughout the last 20 or 30 years. It's just that there were times when I met people that fascinated me and times I didn't."

"I definitely got to a point where I realize how unusual it is to be able to play large, sold-out shows 30 years into a rock and roll career. I don't take it for granted."

"I think rock 'n' roll would become exponentially, considerably more difficult to perform past about 65."

"I don't think rock 'n' roll is necessarily a young man's game."

"Fame is like the dessert that comes with your achievements - it's not an achievement in itself, but sometimes it can overpower the work."

"The art market was very different before the mid-1980s: then, art was all about passion, whereas now it's become a commodity."

"There are two types of collector, I think. There are those who are quite academic, and get into the archaeology of finding the earliest example of a particular idea. Then there are those interested in what's new."

"If you put Willem Dafoe, Liam Neeson and James Woods in a room together, there wouldn't be room for anyone else."

"We all know that television is better for women as they get into their 40s. You could be more three-dimensional, not just the wife or the mother."

"I've been dating younger men since my 20s, When I was 29, I dated someone 21... younger men are just more fun. I like their energy. I've always been kind of young for my age."

"I've reached a place with my work where I'm ready to concentrate more on life."

"I like people who are still actively creating in their life, who aren't set, I don't feel like I'm set. And I don't have any baggage, for better or worse. I don't have any plants or pets or kids. I can lock the door and go. I need to be with somebody for whom that's okay."

"Television is more of a business. You can't take as many risks, because there's so many channels now, and the advertising's dropping."

"I have faith in my imperfections!"

"In Europe the parents are included as with children. All three generations are together. I'm thinking of Italy. You go out on a Sunday afternoon and the whole family is there."

"I'm the worst rider. I'm a terrible rider. Me and horses are not a good mix. For some reason, people are always trying to get me on a horse in a movie."

"I love being on stage or in front of the camera. My work brings me a lot of joy. It helps me figure out who I am. I'm really lucky that I get to make a living at acting."

"I think I would make a good spy. I can sort of be a chameleon. People don't notice me very easily. I never get recognized."

"If you approach a player with respect, he will give you that respect back, but sometimes fans are just critical."
