I've only used my own voice about four times on film.

I need something to do when I'm not working, or I crawl up the walls. So I've just taken up kung fu. I was looking for some kind of calming, relaxing activity. I tried yoga, but it wasn't really me.

Even before my audition, there were several pages missing from my script because those bits were so unbelievably secret not even I was allowed to see them.

My philosophy was, if I just do good work, someone will like it enough to employ me. It never made me famous. And I'm way, way too old now, mate. That boat's sailed.

I'm still working, I've got two arms, two legs, two gorgeous kids, a lovely wife. Fifteen years ago, I was homeless. So when you think about it, I'm lucky.

I'm belligerent rather than ambitious.

I hate auditions - when I'm doing them, I can't wait to get out the bleeding door.

It's not any desire on my part to start playing dads, but it's a convention of drama. If you don't get the parts of young people going out to nightclubs, you have to play their fathers.

When you get to 15 and most of your teachers are priests, there's bound to be a conflict.

That's what I like about Neil Jordan's films: everyone is better at what they do than you are.

I just want to be rich and famous.

Love people, not places. Places don't miss you when you're gone.

I didn't cross the line, you drew it in after I traversed it.

...because a life without meaning, without drive or focus, without dreams or goals, isn't a life worth living.

One of the things I had a hard time getting used to when I came to California in '78 was Santa Claus in shorts.

No doubt, intuitions deserve respect. ...[but] I think that it is always up for grabs what an intuition is an intuition of. At a minimum, it is surely sometimes up for grabs.

President Lech Kaczynski is not at all active in Poland and his image abroad leaves a lot to be desired.

I started writing it six and a half years ago, so the landscape has changed a lot in that time.

Usually it's a pretty calculated, sustained, and slow process by which you develop something. The effect can be one of spontaneity, but that's part of the artistry.

Lacey didn't like it, even though he was born here, I understand. I mean, he was born in Brooklyn. He told the staff that they better prepare themselves to say goodbye to some of their friends.

For me, it's very offensive when I notice that it's all about my appearance, how I look, that a man doesn't care who I am.
