Our only adjustments are figuring out our schedules. Our deal is that we can’t be more than a week apart. So far that’s worked out pretty well.
I don’t think of us as a power couple, because I don’t know what that means. I would think a power couple is like… Bill and Hillary seem to be a power couple. I think we’re just a couple with a great interest in the human condition. I don’t think of that as particularly powerful; I just think of it as our responsibility as people on the planet.
She does very well with that [coping with Hollywood’s spotlight]. It’s hard to do, I think.
I think about three days in, you could tell. I mean, I knew when I met her that she was so extraordinary and special. And then I wondered if I’d ever get a chance to date her.
I very much enjoy the projects that she takes on because they have real consequence.
The only way we resolve anything is by arm wrestling. That is my only chance of winning anything with her because if it’s an intellectual battle, I would lose. She’s the smart one in the family.
Look, it’s good to surround yourself with anybody who is smarter than you, and for me, the bar’s pretty low anyway. But Amal is way up there. She’s brilliant.
I have someone who I can talk to about anything and someone who I care more about than I’ve cared about anybody.
I’ve always been involved in things other than this business long before I was successful at it, but she’s been doing it kind of quietly and unheralded for a long, long period of time.
I felt that I had met someone who I would absolutely, you know, trade my life for. I met someone who — her life meant more to me than my life.
