On raising his daughter, Meadow: “I’m into being a dad, that’s where my focus is most of the time. I’m an actor that’s my job, but it’s not my life. I have a lot of other interests too.”
On having perspective: “There’s more to life than movies.”
On how he escapes: “Surfing soothes me, it’s always been a kind of Zen experience for me. The ocean is so magnificent, peaceful, and awesome. The rest of the world disappears for me when I’m on a wave.”

On his love for the great outdoors: “Being out in nature is a big part of the way I am the way I am today.
On becoming a dad: “I was really freaked out [about becoming a dad]. The whole thought of being a dad was scary to me. It’s kind of like that Creed song that says, ‘I don’t know if I’m ready/To be the man I have to be.’ Every day, you find yourself scratching your head, going, ‘Wow am I really? I guess I really am!'”
On being fearless: “I’m not afraid of anything. That’s just the way I am.”
On raising Meadow to be grounded: “I have a daughter and she’s been going on camping trips with me recently. It’s important to me that she experiences those things and grows while doing all that. I think sometimes it may be overwhelming for her because of who her daddy is and what he does.”
