As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a gangster.

I really believe that you never stop learning.

I'm not a proponent of people watching a movie, and then going out and doing something bad. People have been doing bad things, well before movies.

I was on a soap opera before that for three years, where I was the nicest guy on earth.

You're always - you're constantly learning things if you're the type of person who stays open and current.

Suddenly playing the charming bad guy was my thing.

I know when I go to a movie I want to experience something, whether to laugh, to cry, to feel bad.

I was so happy when they cast me in Chocolat, because it's one of my vices.

This is the practice school of writing. Like running, the more you do it, the better you get at it.

The brain forgets much, but the lower back remembers everything.

Meditation means seeing God within you, and love is seeing God in the person next to you.

The only question which any wise man can ask himself, and which any honest man will ask himself, is whether a doctrine is true or false.
