“I can't stand politicians who wear God on their sleeves.”

“But I will wear my heart upon my sleeve
For daws to peck at: I am not what I am.”

“To wear your heart on your sleeve isn't a very good plan; you should wear it inside, where it functions best.”

“A politician is a politician whether he's wearing a suit or a funny hat.”

“Politicians should wear sponsor jackets like Nascar drivers, then we know who owns them.”

“People are sick of fake politicians who have no core and say one thing in private and another in public, or are just obviously doing anything right before an election. My sense is that voters of all ideological persuasions prefer candidates who are just real about what they believe and what they want to do, even if it’s not necessarily the precise policy platform that you agree with. You want someone who’s wearing their values on their sleeve and not B.S.’ing*.”

“I can't believe I'm saying I'm a politician.”

“I couldn't stand it. I still can't stand it. I can't stand the way things are. I cannot tolerate this age.”

“A boy who won't stand up for himself becomes a man who can't stand up to anything.”

“Most actors possess an intuitive side. Actually, the further away I am from the character, the less work I have to do. It takes so much more energy to detach yourself from your own life references that might cross wires with your character's. I think it's cheating for me to ever use my life references in conjunction with my characters. It's my reaction transferred to the character, which isn't good. What I have to do is erase those things and then find something else. I can't stand in front of a camera and let anything of myself come through or I'm betraying the character's complete trueness. There are some actors who just use themselves. They can wear their ego on their sleeve and it looks great. I can't do that.”
