I think great art is always ambiguous and can't be pinned down.

People ask me to smile for the camera, but somehow it always comes out gloomy.

I have never been to a brothel. I don't think I could go into one.

People often refer to my career before The Crying Game as something which led up to that point. But I was very fulfilled in what I was doing.

I didn't want to be seen as just a guy on a list. I'm interested in good scripts, scripts that are about something, scripts that move your acting along.

At least when you're acting you can be someone. In front of the camera you have to be yourself. And who am I?

There is no greater burden than great potential.

'Tis virtue, and not birth that makes us noble: Great actions speak great minds, and such should govern.

Valor is abased by too much loftiness.

The only man who never makes a mistake is the man who never does anything.
