I love playing half squid/half crab guy because you can get away with a level of acting that if you tried it anywhere else they'd arrest you for crimes against acting.

As you get older you feel you need to pay more attention to what is around you and relish it. I'm greedy for beauty.

The way the elderly are treated, and in some cases warehoused and medicated, rather than nurtured and listened to, is distressing.

If you ever see me in a social setting wearing any sort of sportswear, then you know I'm in crisis.

I'm not a financial expert. The Robin Hood tax seems to me a very simple and beautiful idea. I don't see the problem.

I find it hard to relax around any man who's got the second button on his shirt undone.

When people warned me there would be long periods out of work if I became an actor, I couldn't keep a straight face because that was exactly what I had in mind.

I never go on the net or the web, or whatever it's called.

The phenomenon of vampires has always appealed to me. Everyone kind of likes a vampire story because it almost could be true.

I'm not a royal family watcher.

I'm a jacket man. And if I'm without one, I am kind of seriously disabled. I don't know how to operate in shirt sleeves.

It's your fiction that interests me. Your studies of the interplay of human motives and emotion.

Fear has many eyes and can see things underground.

You can never ask others to do something you would not do. That is integrity.

God tells us not to judge one another, no matter what anyone's sexual preferences are or if they're black, brown or purple.

He also knew that rivals are best unmanned by being ignored.

If I play a stupid girl and ask a stupid question, I've got to follow it through. What am I supposed to do, look intelligent?

If society has a technical need, that helps science forward more than ten universities.

I have the kiss of Walt Whitman still on my lips

If you can't count on your heart having some kind of unified response, you can't count on anything. You use your heart as a barometer for your movie's completeness.
