I'm interested in pressure, I'm interested in duress. All the great works of art, or film or literature, in my opinion, have elements of those in them.

I don't know if anyone will ever sit beside me on a plane again.

My only two constants are to challenge myself and to try not to repeat myself.

I like being at home with my music and my books. I’ve done all the partying, I’ve done enough partying for four or five people as a young fella. But now I like the quiet life.

I personally think if something's not a challenge there's no point doing it because you're not gonna learn much.

I'm terrible. I'm the wrong person to talk to, I really don't know a thing.

I will always love film, the romance of film, sitting in the darkened room with strangers and watching a story for two hours - that will always remain and never be eroded by television.

I was obsessed with Batman as a kid. I did the film in part just to be near the Batmobile. But I also think [director] Christopher Nolan made a very fine, intelligent film.

You know, I'm a skinny Irish guy.

I don't have a burning passion to live in America per se but I would certainly like to work there.

If you behave like a celebrity, then people will treat you like a celebrity, and if you don't, they won't. There's not much to write about me in the tabloids.

That's the beauty of art--we strive for perfection but never achieve it. The journey is everything.

If one attains awareness of own’s own Self’s authority [power], even for a moment, he can become a Parmatma (Absolute Supreme Self).

May you find the greatest strength, the divine force.

Nothing dies in Hell.

Art is making something out of nothing and selling it.

Spirituality does not come from religion. It comes from our soul.

It was a very stupid thing to do, I'll admit, but I hardly didn't even know I was doing it.

I guess gritty is the word that you said. But it has a different tone. We're not flying around in different universes - it's a bit more earthy.

Saying the lion is kind of the beasts says something about lions and also something about kings.

Life has its own flavor.
