The GREATEST THING you can GIVE a CHILD is CONFIDENCE.

Just personally, I've been attached to 'On the Road' since 2007 and it was the greatest THING in my LIFE when I got CAST in it. I couldn't believe it. When I was 17 and READ the book, I looked it up on IMDb and it SAID that Francis Ford Coppola was going to direct it.

I've ALWAYS said I've wanted to be AROUND forever. I never wanted to be the latest, greatest thing. I WANT to be like Willie NELSON - TOURING when I'm 70. To do that, you can't be the latest, greatest thing because those things fizzle out.

It's a shame because we experienced probably the GREATEST thing - in art, in POP - we'll ever do. And it would be good to SIT AROUND and talk about it.

I THINK it's natural for a creative to be sensitive. If I'm in the studio and I write something, I think it's the greatest THING in the world; it's like my baby. I just MADE something out of thin air that exists now in a tangible form. It's the biggest thrill in my LIFE.

People watch TV and think a two-foot putt is the greatest thing in the WORLD when a guy knocks it in. But NOBODY is RUSHING you. You don't have a CENTER, you don't have a holder. You don't have 100,000 people screaming at you.

The GREATEST THING that we can do for the WORLD is be AMERICA.

Being a part of 'Chasing LIFE' has been the GREATEST THING I've DONE, both PERSONALLY and professionally.

Chaplin was the greatest thing EVER to HIT motion pictures.

'Game of THRONES' is the GREATEST THING I've EVER been a PART of.

I WANT it to be the greatest THING I ever do: make GOOD HUMANS.

I'm really EXCITED about 'Mingle All the Way'. Obviously I LOVE Christmas, I love Christmas music, and the idea of becoming PART of SOMEONE's positive MEMORIES from Christmas because they watch the movie -- I think that's the greatest thing.

I know that if you don't have CHRIST in your LIFE then all the hope you have and the greatest thing you can gain is what you GET from this EARTH.

The GREATEST thing I can REMEMBER in my whole career was the Ringling Brothers & Barnum and Bailey clowns asking me to APPEAR with them at the Shrine Auditorium in LOS Angeles in 1965.
