I’m better off working as opposed to lying around.

Europe and the United States are better off extending a helping hand to those who know best rather than dictating to them an unfamiliar future.

When I was a younger actor, I would try to keep it serious all day. But I have found, later on, that the lighter I am about things when I’m going to do a big scene that’s dramatic and takes a lot out of you, the better off I am when I come to it.

In some ways, I always thought you’re better off behaving like a rock star when you’re a normal person. Because if you do it as a rock star, you’ll end up in the papers and your life will be made a misery.

It’s like a rugby team. If you’re picking for the World Cup final, you’re picking experience with youth. Everything is better off having that balance and that mix. I think that, especially, goes for the monarchy as well.

The Democrats would be better off giving the public a chance to vote for someone young – they have young leaders in the party – as I think Republicans should do. I think that is where the future is.

You’re much better off creating positive rewards, complimenting people for acting correctly, rather than punishing them when they act incorrectly.

You can put yourself to the purpose of others, and in doing so, you can be better off.
