“I wasn't going to be an actor. I was going to be a lawyer. I came from a family …” — Gerard Butler

I've had broken bones and cuts and dashes and tears from movies, but when I was five, my mom put the biscuits up high so we wouldn't be helping ourselves. So, one day I asked to stand up on a chair to get a biscuit, and it fell, and the corner of the chair went right into the side of my eye, and it made a big hole in there.

I have literally run into 20 people all around the world with my face tattooed on them.

To me, it's always good to retain a sense of wonder and never good too big for life, like you've seen it all before.

My overwhelming memory of being a child is the huge amount of love I felt for my mum. She was my everything, because she was both my mum and my dad.
