The 55-year-old actor continues, “And your own wins and losses—the older you get, they don’t seem like so much of a win or so much of a loss. Who you spend your time with, how you spend time—it has just become much more important to me.

On religion, Pitt confesses, “I’m optimistic about the possibility of connection. I’ve gone through everything. Like, I cling to religion. I grew up with Christianity. Always questioned it, but it worked at times. And then, when I got on my own, I completely left it, and I called myself agnostic. Tried a few spiritual things, but didn’t feel right.

The American actor elaborates, “Then I called myself an atheist for a while, just kind of being rebellious, says Pitt. I wasn’t, really. But I kinda labeled myself that for a while. It felt punk rock enough. And then I found myself coming back around to just belief in—I hate to use the word spirituality, but just a belief in that we’re all connected.” Read more at GQ.com.
