I'm not a show-off; I'm not an exhibitionist.

Every moment of living has its own logic, its own meaning.

Acting has always been such escapism for me.

It's lovely to work with a group of actors who make you laugh and smile.

When it comes to my work, I'm fearless. I go with my gut.

I need someone who understands an artist's mentality. I couldn't be with someone who wouldn't let me have my freedom.

I'd love to work on a real girl piece with some fabulous actresses. I feel like I've worked with so many men.

I don't want to be doing fashion shoots and being interviewed about where I shop. Who cares?

I think when you're an actor and you're drawing on your emotions all the time, you need to be quite steady.

The reason I act is because I'm trying to understand why people are as they are.

I'd prefer to go under the radar and just do the acting without being famous for it.

I've often been asked to run for office. I have no desire to do that, I would not want my time with the family or the company restricted because of the demands of an elected position.

The West is not in the West. It is a project, not a place.

Everything that's innocent to us is crazy to them.

It seems odd that we continue to worry about the reputations of men who are accused of sexual wrong-doings.

I'm not interested in the fact that a writer may label himself as being intellectual or anti-intellectual. l'm really interested in the stuff he's turning out.

There is no quality I would rather have, and be thought to have, than gratitude. For it is not only the greatest virtue, but is the mother of all the rest.

Keep it simple, keep it sexy, keep it sad.

But I know that all the things I do know are very small compared with the things that I don't know.

I love you and I'm here for you.
