“My mum and dad had worked incredibly hard to afford me an education.” — Benedict Cumberbatch Quote

My mum and dad had worked incredibly hard to afford me an education.

To get a horse to hit a mark without a rider, to get it to stand up, to get it to rear, to get it to pick up a bucket and bring it over is amazing. It's hard work and very rewarding but can be dangerous.

Every job is incredibly different, and I love it because you're picking up skill sets and experiences. It's the university of life.

The further you get away from yourself, the more challenging it is. Not to be in your comfort zone is great fun.

A woman who knows that she doesn't have to get all decked out to look good is sexy. A woman who can make you feel smart with her conversation skills is also sexy. I believe the sense of humor is important.

I think I grew up with a profound sense of watching people who were good people, who were smart people, who were hardworking people - God, nobody on this Earth worked harder than my mom and dad - and they had very little.

My dad served in two wars has been flying airplanes for 60 years now. He was certainly quite an inspiration.

Trump talks like a guy at a bar in West Virginia. Trump talks like my dad sitting around the dinner table.

Being a dad is like - there's nothing more important. So the exploration of that in stories, with parents and fathers and brothers, siblings, I just think that you're always in the terrain of love, whether it's absence of love or the giving of love or the desire for love.
