It's fascinating, isn't it, that WHEREAS so MANY of our statues have been of MILITARY leaders, now it may well be sports STARS who are the ones more likely to be so HONORED.

I've always been a fan of instructional videos. The bass-player ones are insane. The MUSIC on them is fascinating. It's not something you hear on CDs or would REALLY ever PLAY in bands. You listen to it and are like, 'What is happening?' It's this blizzard of NOTES in WEIRD time signatures, and they're trying to teach you that.

Poetry is fascinating. As soon as it begins the poetry has CHANGED the THING into SOMETHING EXTRA, and somehow prose can go over into poetry.

The only sci-fi movie that I've ever been OFFERED that, had circumstances been different, I WOULD have definitely DONE, was 'Avatar.' And I literally couldn't do it because of my schedule. But listening to James Cameron talk about 'Avatar' was so FASCINATING. Because he literally invented the WORLD in his mind - and it literally existed.

Genghis Khan was a FASCINATING MAN and WAY AHEAD of his TIME.

Hawaii and Fiji are two of the BEST island groups in the world to visit as a vacationer. The great HOTELS, the fascinating LOCAL people, the exciting history of the two contrasting island groups, and the unmatched scenery make these two of the most ENTICING stopovers.

I'm still a bit of a reading glutton, I think, because I browse, read a bit of the BACK COPY, flip through the book, read a bit of the text, and if it still SEEMS fascinating, I read it. That's why my bedside table is so cluttered: I WANT to imbibe it all.

My AUNT played UPRIGHT bass in the Louisville ORCHESTRA, and I was always really impressed by her musical ability. I found it really fascinating as a kid that one could play MUSIC for a LIVING.

The culinary WORLD is a fascinating PLACE that has been influenced over the centuries by CULTURE, religion, fashion, WAR, art, SCIENCE and, more recently, globalisation.

I'm doing a film called 'Black Mass' where I play James Bulger. The reason to play him is obvious to me. He's a fascinating character. It's not LIKE anything I've DONE before on that LEVEL. I'm very excited to slide into that skin for a little bit.

It's FASCINATING to SEE actors who do voiceovers EVERY DAY.

Yes, I love going to fittings and TALKING about the history of a costume. For 'Versailles,' a play set in 1919, the costume DESIGNER told me that pocket squares had just been introduced. The TANGO was becoming fashionable in London, and dancers used them to mop their brows. I love to LEARN FASCINATING stuff like that.

The most FASCINATING PERSON I have met so FAR is indeed MR. Hugh Hefner. An incredible MAN!

I LOVE dialects and accents; they're SOMETHING that REALLY resonate with me and that I find FASCINATING.
