• I'm a little older and fatter now, and I'm not exercising as much. My lifestyle these days involves a lot of beer and pasta. But there's something satisfying in letting your body go to hell. So maybe I won't get offered the same kind of role as before. So what? I'm happy to play the guy in his mid-30s who may be a little unhealthy. "Fat and arrogant" is what I'm bringing to the script.

• The liberal vision of America is that it should be less arrogant, less unilateral, more internationalist. In Obama's view, America would subsume itself under a fuzzy internationalism in which the international community, which I think is a fiction, governs itself through the U.N.

• Si nos atuviéramos a la Constitución tal y como está escrita, no tendríamos: ninguna intromisión federal en nuestras escuelas; ninguna Reserva Federal; ninguna pertenencia de Estados Unidos a la ONU; ningún control de armas; y ninguna ayuda exterior. No tendríamos bienestar para las grandes corporaciones ni para los "pobres"; no habría tropas estadounidenses en 100 países extranjeros; no habría NAFTA, TAG ni "vía rápida"; no habría jueces federales arrogantes usurpando los derechos de los estados; no habría ataques a la propiedad privada; no habría impuesto sobre la renta. Podríamos deshacernos de la mayoría de las agencias y de la mayor parte del presupuesto. El gobierno sería pequeño, frugal y limitado.

• Soy lo bastante arrogante como para decirles que soy lo bastante listo como para haber sacado en mi examen de aptitud escolar una nota más alta que la de cualquier presidente estadounidense cuya nota SAT se haya hecho pública.

• Escribí una carta a la revista [Time magazine] en la que señalaba que la comparación que hacía [Richard] Corliss del Saruman de Christopher Lee con Osama Bin Laden, y de los defensores del Abismo de Helm unidos contra los orcos, muy superados en número, con la "Coalición de Voluntarios" que lucha por el bien contra las hordas musulmanas, mostraba la visión simplista, xenófoba y arrogante del mundo que hace que el gobierno de Estados Unidos sea temido y se desconfíe de él en todo el mundo. Los editores alegaron que no tenían espacio para publicar mi breve carta, lo que me pareció deshonesto y cobarde.

• [Doctor Strange] is difficult, he's arrogant, but he's kind of brilliant and charming and you'd think, "Yeah, I'd want him on my head if I needed brain surgery." He's good enough to warrant his arrogance and he respects other people but not when he thinks he's right and he'll just do what he deems needs to be done when he knows or feels that he's right and the problem from humility's point of view is that he is right, he's really really good at his job.

• My approach to 'Star Trek' was, 'I know science fiction, and I know screen writing.' That was very arrogant of me, but you really need to be a little bit arrogant to think that what you have to say is good enough to justify the expense of hundreds of thousands - now millions of dollars - to make an episode of the TV show.

• Toasted Heretic should have been cherished and helped, rather than ignored or sneered at, or put down as "quirky band with an arrogant singer".

But, yes, if you could suffer from high self-esteem, then I certainly suffered.
