"I'll trade wisdom for youth any day. It's a tragedy in the sense that any love involves loss, and that's the risk you take. And the greater the love, the greater the loss. I certainly feel that now with the woman I'm with, and the children that I have. But whatever the course may be, this time together is extraordinary."PerezHilton.com: Quote of the Day (December 26, 2008)Notable Roles
