On if he plans to tie the knot with Angelina: “The kids ask about marriage. It’s meaning more and more to them. So it’s something we’ve got to look at.”

On raising their six kids: “Angie and I do everything we can to carve out some semblance of normalcy for them, to re-create the kinds of moments that were special for us. It’s not unusual for the kids to be covered in paint. We have mud fights. It’s chaos from morning until the lights go out, and sometimes after that.”

On the paparazzi: “We’re hunted. Our kids have to live behind a gate. Outside, there are people with cameras. But I’ll take the trade-off. I never knew I was capable of experiencing so much love.”

On spending time alone with Angelina: “There are no secrets at our house. We tell the kids, ‘Mom and Dad are going off to kiss.’ They go, ‘Eww, gross!’ But we demand it.”

“We’ve got it down and the kids have got their backpack. They have to carry their backpack and if they forget it, they forget it – because there’s just too much to keep track of.

“Mom’s really good at packing. She’s militant, she’s really, really talented. I couldn’t do it.”
