| Quotes: |
(On working and being with Reese Witherspoon on the film Cruel Intentions (1999)): It was great. I'm the luckiest guy in the world. Not only personally but professionally. She was an asset to the movie and we begged her to do it. She didn't have as colorful a role as Sarah's and mine, but she did an amazing job. Really elevated the piece.
<br />
<hr>
(On starting a family with Reese): "It just makes so many other things insignificant. It is the most incredible thing that has happened to me, and I feel so lucky to have found the person I want to be with, and to be prepared and enthusiastic."
<br />
<hr>
(About his daughter, Ava): She is a relief from all the stress in my life; everyday she does something new and it is so amazing.
<br />
<hr>
Music is my greatest love. If I could play an instrument I would be a musician.
<br />
<hr>
I have good taste, that's the one thing I'm cocky about. |
