Mark Wahlberg
Image
And I tell you, having girls has made me a much better man. I have friends who are fathers, but they only have boys, and they have the same attitude toward women they always had, you know? And I don't play that... My girls, you mess with them? I will bury you underground.

James Cagney, Steve McQueen, I loved all those guys. I grew up loving the movies but had no desire to be in them.
