I've lost love. I've tried to reclaim a lost love and didn't know how to do it.

I didn't set out to be famous; if I'd wanted that, I would have gone on Big Brother.

A mate of mine told me recently, 'It's the first time I've seen you work, Worthington.' I thought that was quite funny, but he was right.

Most actors go, I read the script and fell in love with it; I fall in love with the directors.

When you're working with friends, unless the material is right, our friendship could end.

You've always got to be smart enough to go 'Well they're going to have to bring some of their own in'. We don't want to be a monopoly where we get shoved out, it has to be symbiotic.

Everything is backwards now, like out there is the true world, and in here is the dream.

Each job you have has it's own challenges. One of the great things about my job, is that each film is a different journey.

I want a movie to be satisfying for an audience. That sense of having to get it done, no matter what cost, is what I like.

All you need in any industry is someone to back you, and Jim Cameron backed me up.

Patriots is quite simple; there's seven continents in the world, if you had to sacrifice one continent and make it six would you do it?

If you care about people and you really love them, you should get angry at the things that put them in danger or hurt them.

The woman and the genius do not work. Up to now, woman has been mankind's supreme luxury. In all those moments when we do our best, we do not work. Work is merely a means to these moments.

New York is not even a city, it's a congerie of rotten villages.

I know I'm not going to understand women. I'll never understand how you can take boiling hot wax, pour it onto your upper thigh, rip the hair out by the root, and still be afraid of a spider.

The night folds her trembling hands over a weary world. Out of a pale blue rises the shining moon. My thoughts are flying to the stars like lonely swans.

I was on Stealing Beauty in 1996 and then I started feeling acting was something I wanted to do forever. It made me feel like I'll still be looking for parts when I'm 70 years old.

Film is simply the most complex way you can express yourself

All conceptions are limitations of the conceiver.

As I said, my parents loved that when they came to America, if you worked hard, the only things that could stop you were the limits you placed on yourself.

If you are not offending people who ought to be offended, you're doing something wrong.
