The subconscious mind takes your fears as a request, proceeds to manifest them, and brings them into your experience. - Joseph Murphy
Life's experiences, whether they be pleasant or unpleasant, torturous or excruciatingly wonderful and blissful, you know, season you somehow and you learn from them. - Mel Gibson
My biggest weakness is that I'm excessive. Fortunately for everyone concerned, I'm not as excessive as I used to be. - Mel Gibson
My dad taught me my faith, and I believe what he taught me. The man never lied to me in his life. - Mel Gibson
My family means more to me than the artificial trappings of my career. If ever I had to choose between my career and my family, the wife and kids would definitely come out on top. - Mel Gibson
My whole approach to wardrobe is, throw it in a suitcase and make sure they don't press it, for Pete's sake, so I can try to display some rumpled charm. Actually, I'm just a pig. I've got coffee stains on my pants. I think they're coffee stains, anyway. - Mel Gibson
People like scary stories. There's a fascination with fear themes, and we want to face those things in a weird, subconscious way. - Mel Gibson
Religion and politics hit nerves. There's a lot of anger about a lot of things. It's not easily resolved. I guess that's what wars are about. Wars are about prejudice and fear. Hit first before you get hit. Believe me, I know. - Mel Gibson
The only way to maintain a moderate sum of happiness in this life is not to worry about the future or regret the past too much. - Mel Gibson
The thing we're all looking for is happiness, and if we achieve just a modicum of that or even a little piece of serenity even for five minutes a day, we're very lucky. - Mel Gibson
The very first idea I ever had about making a film... my first thought about ever being a filmmaker was when I was sixteen years old and I wanted to make a Viking movie. And I wanted to make it in old Norse, which I was studying at the time. It's odd because at that age that's a stupidly ridiculous idea 'cause how will I ever be a filmmaker. - Mel Gibson

There is no excuse, nor should there be any tolerance, for anyone who thinks or expresses any kind of anti-Semitic remark. I want to apologize specifically to everyone in the Jewish community for the vitriolic and harmful words that I said to a law enforcement officer the night I was arrested on a DUI charge. - Mel Gibson
Well, I think any time you delve into this sort of religion, politics, as you well know, you're going to, you know, touch a few nerves. I wasn't - now - and this is the honest truth. - Mel Gibson
We're all dying. We're all in the process of oxidizing. Everyone of us is in the process of oxidizing, so to sort of interrupt one aspect of that while everything else goes on, it's a freak show. - Mel Gibson
What I need to do to heal myself and to be assuring and allay the fears of others and to heal them if they had any heart wounds from something I may have said. - Mel Gibson
When you get to that point where you don't want to live, and you don't want to die, it's a desperate, horrible place to be. And I just hit my knees. And I had to use 'The Passion of the Christ' to heal my wounds. - Mel Gibson
Writing is a hard gig, and it's hard to convey a lot. That's why scripts tend to be a little bit overwritten. I've never treated anyone badly or in a discriminatory way based on their gender, race, religion or sexuality - period. - Mel Gibson
You ask anybody what their number one fear is, and it's public humiliation. Multiply that on a global scale, and that's what I've been through. - Mel Gibson
