Ive never heard my dad say a bad word about anybody. He always keeps his emotions in check and is a true gentleman. I was taught that losing it was indulgent, a selfish act. – Hugh Jackman
Im doing a new musical on Broadway, which opens in October called The Boy from Oz, where I play Peter Allen. For those of you who dont know, he became first famous in America for marrying Liza Minelli. – Hugh Jackman
I just find the evangelical church too, well, restrictive. But the School of Practical Philosophy is nonconfrontational. We believe there are many forms of Scripture. What is true is true and will never change, whether its in the Bible or in Shakespeare. Its about oneness. – Hugh Jackman
What I respect as far as in myself and in others is the spirit of just doing it. For better or worse, it may work and it may not, but Im going to go for it. Ultimately I probably prefer to be respected for that than whether it works out or not, either winning or losing. – Hugh Jackman
My dad was the district attorney of New Orleans for about 30 years. And when he opened his campaign headquarters back in the early 70s, when I was 5 years old, my mother wanted me to play the national anthem. And they got an upright piano on the back of a flatbed truck and I played it. – Harry Connick, Jr.
