I like playing the villain.

I'm the son of an everyman. My father is a teacher. He teaches physics at a boys' school in Sydney.

My trumpeting sounds like a goose farting in the fog.

I am a big fan of vampires. I've always been obsessed with the genre, and the beautiful romanticism and erotic kind of nature of the immortal being, the undead who lives on human blood.

The mecca of filmmaking in the world just so happens to be in America. It's quite simply a case of us just going where the work is.

To have a friend and a comrade as your co-star, especially in a romantic comedy, is really important. It gives you the room. It's easier to give yourself and the other person permission to play.

I really enjoy doing charity, for a good cause, it’s like the least I can do, I really enjoy that stuff. I enjoy giving back.

Losing my anonymity in this world I think is something that I find terrifying.

I do not think I'm a great talent. I think I'm a medium talent, but I think I understand the business and enjoy the business.

I don't know what I'm really good at. I'm really good at sittin' by the pool. I have to work at that. I'm really bad at auditioning.

I write music just for me. I'm certainly not good enough to do it on any kind of a level but I enjoy that time because it's quiet.

… real life hardly ever unfolds the way we’d like it to, not like in a story.

Pray daily like your success lies on it, but don't forget to work relentlessly hard like your success depends on it.

Morality and its victim, the mother - what a terrible picture! Is there indeed anything more terrible, more criminal, than our glorified sacred function of motherhood?

Step by step, we will break this cycle of silence, poor information and stigma.

A large brain, like large government, may not be able to do simple things in a simple way.

We are immortal till our work is done.

Never be grandiloquent when you want to drive home a searching truth. Don't whip with a switch that has the leaves on, if you want it to tingle.

The only definition of a leader is someone who has followers.

Society acquires new arts, and loses old instincts.

Doing more with less, is a crucial principle to learn; especially if you're going to be in business in this rapidly changing world.
