Notable quote
I was very close to my father. He used to take me out every Saturday, shopping and to lunch. On Sundays, he took me to church regularly, until I could drive. Then Id drive him to church regularly. Its because of his diligence that my religion is so strong today. - from an interview in The Hollywood Reporter
