For me as a man, philosophically, when you talk about honor and integrity, thats the way I want to live my life. It moved me.
Tom Cruise
It's well known I'm a Scientologist, and that has helped me to find that inner peace in my life and it's something that has given me great stability and tools that I use.
Tom Cruise
I just eat life... I engage in life.
Tom Cruise

Everybody dies, Sally. The thing is to die well.
Tom Cruise
I want a world without war, a world without insanity. I want to see people do well. I don't even think it's as much as what I want for myself. It's more what I want for the people around me. That's what I want.

I enjoy working with writers and their scripts. It's very exciting to me. Eventually I would like to produce, direct and act onstage, but it's not a heavy pressure.

Tom Cruise
I don't hide from cameras or anything. It doesn't bother me. I don't seek our press for the women I'm dating, but if it finds me, it finds me.
Tom Cruise
I kept looking [at Katie] and thinking, 'This woman's amazing.' I'm happy that I'm with her. She's amazing, and I'd think the same of her even if she wasn't with me - she's just amazing.
Tom Cruise
Even in my dreams, I’m an idiot who knows he’s about to wake up to reality.
Tom Cruise
I'm not greedy. I just want my half.
Tom Cruise
I love adventure movies, I just love action adventure films. It's pure cinema and you go in and you're lost to it. To me, it's that challenge - I want to give an audience that ride, that entertainment.
Tom Cruise
Do I make mistakes? Yeah.
Tom Cruise
Yes, of course. Are you really so arrogant as to believe we are alone in this universe? Millions of stars, and we're supposed to be the only living creatures? No, there are many things out there, we just don't know.
Tom Cruise
Nothing ends nicely, that's why it ends.
Tom Cruise
If someone wants to know about Scientology, they should just go and read about it themselves. That's the best way to do it.
