I'm off to sit on a cliff.

Falling down is a very big subject, and so is the concept of downfall. None of us escapes, and I have had my share of both.

Sometimes you just have to jump off the cliff without knowing where you will land.

One of the things we're taught as actors is restraint - don't jump off the cliff.

One of the reasons I wrote 'The Fall' is that climbing's more than a sport, it's a way of life. When you're in it, it's all you think about.

I never considered myself a fall guy. I know what I did. I know why I did it. I'm not ashamed of it.

Living at risk is jumping off the cliff and building your wings on the way down.

Don't learn to do, but learn in doing. Let your falls not be on a prepared ground, but let them be bona fide falls in the rough and tumble of the world.

When you fall, get right back up.
