For every minute you remain angry, you give up sixty seconds of peace of mind.

Nothing in the affairs of men is worthy of great anxiety.

If I panic, everyone else panics.

I’m gonna go hard no matter what because I gotta feed my family, and I gotta feed myself.

Love is a state of Being. Your love is not outside; it is deep within you. You can never lose it, and it cannot leave you. It is not dependent on some other body, some external form.

For me, there have been times when an action movie, even a ‚Tomb Raider,‘ has helped me get out of myself and be physical again. It’s like therapy.

I used to let other people’s struggles affect my happiness. If they weren’t happy, there was no way I was going to be happy. The opposite was also true: If I wasn’t happy, I didn’t want anyone around me to be happy.

When you go to an oasis, you go there to supply yourself with the vital things you are missing, things that you need.

If you’re going to wake up early all the time, and you’re working hard, and you’re working out, sometimes you’re going to get tired. It’s OK. It’s acceptable – somewhat. We’re all human, unfortunately.

As long as your body is healthy and under control and death is distant, try to save your soul; when death is immanent what can you do?

Every man who possibly can should force himself to a holiday of a full month in a year, whether he feels like taking it or not.

I got my own back.

A deep sense of love and belonging is an irreducible need of all people. We are biologically, cognitively, physically, and spiritually wired to love, to be loved, and to belong. When those needs are not met, we don’t function as we were meant to. We break. We fall apart. We numb. We ache. We hurt others. We get sick.

I try not to go around looking like a hag.

It doesn’t take much to make me angry.

I need to keep working on myself for a while.

The greatest remedy for anger is delay.

Physical comforts cannot subdue mental suffering, and if we look closely, we can see that those who have many possessions are not necessarily happy. In fact, being wealthy often brings even more anxiety.

What can you do against the lunatic who is more intelligent than yourself, who gives your arguments a fair hearing and then simply persists in his lunacy?

I don’t like being alone.

When dealing with the insane, the best method is to pretend to be sane.

Since everything is in our heads, we had better not lose them.

To be happy we must not be too concerned with others.

The mind of a 19-year-old is very different from the mind of a 26-year-old. You grow. You get into better relationships. You experience more, meet more people, better people. But when you’re in a dark hole at an earlier point in your life – you write about the mindset you’re in at that moment.

A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance.

How much more grievous are the consequences of anger than the causes of it.

When you have nobody you can make a cup of tea for, when nobody needs you, that’s when I think life is over.

Whenever the speech is corrupted so is the mind.

Happiness is the cessation of suffering.

Touring is hard on the body.

Don’t ever forget two things I’m going to tell you. One, don’t believe everything that’s written about you. Two, don’t pick up too many checks.

The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be.

To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance.

It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver.

If you’re going to be crazy, you have to get paid for it or else you’re going to be locked up.

Hmm, on my downtime, I take a shower or listen to the Bible on tape.

Memories are thoughts that arise. They’re not realities. Only when you believe that they are real, then they have the power over you. But when you realize it’s just another thought arising about the past, then you can have a spacious relationship with that thought. The thought no longer has you in its grip.

Every day we should hear at least one little song, read one good poem, see one exquisite picture, and, if possible, speak a few sensible words.

Drag your thoughts away from your troubles… by the ears, by the heels, or any other way you can manage it.

We want to do a lot of stuff; we’re not in great shape. We didn’t get a good night’s sleep. We’re a little depressed. Coffee solves all these problems in one delightful little cup.

An early-morning walk is a blessing for the whole day.

One of the symptoms of an approaching nervous breakdown is the belief that one’s work is terribly important.

People have different emotional levels. Especially when you’re young.

Mothers and daughters generally have fairly complex relationships, and ours was made much more so by Mother’s illness. She had Parkinson’s disease, which was not diagnosed for a long time… All that made me very self-protective, because for one thing, I didn’t want to get trapped.

In a disordered mind, as in a disordered body, soundness of health is impossible.

I am confident that nobody… will accuse me of selfishness if I ask to spend time, while I am still in good health, with my family, my friends and also with myself.

I don’t think your ability to fight has anything to do with how big you are. It’s to do with how much anger is in you.

I don’t carry the burden of the past or the madness of the future. I live in the present.

I’ve often said there’s nothing better for the inside of a man than the outside of a horse.

Therapy? I don’t need that. The roles that I choose are my therapy.

It seems like we wake up and it’s a race until you get to bed. It gets to you after a while and you think, ‚What the hell am I doing?‘

Most men are within a finger’s breadth of being mad.

Chefs are nutters. They’re all self-obsessed, delicate, dainty, insecure little souls and absolute psychopaths. Every last one of them.

I’m addicted to exercising and I have to do something every day.

Getting stress out of your life takes more than prayer alone. You must take action to make changes and stop doing whatever is causing the stress. You can learn to calm down in the way you handle things.

I have never felt more confident in myself, more clear on who I am as a woman. But I am constantly thinking about my own health and making sure that I’m eating right and getting exercise and watching the aches and pains. I want to be this really fly 80-90-year old.

As we dread any disease that undermines the health of the body, so should we deplore contention, which is a corroding canker of the spirit.

Much unhappiness has come into the world because of bewilderment and things left unsaid.

I’ve had no contact with my daughter for years. That’s her choice. Anyway, you move on. If people don’t want to bother with me, fine. You know, God bless them, and move on.

Attention to health is life’s greatest hindrance.

One good thing about acting in film is that it’s good therapy.
