It's funny I'm in some ways hopelessly masculine, but I don't fish, I don't hunt, I'm not that into sports. I can't fix a car. I think it's my point of view and the way I see the world.

I believe that love that is true and real creates a respite from death. All cowardice comes from not loving, or not loving well, which is the same thing.

I'm an actor, in particular, that likes to have a mask or something that can help me distance myself from the character. Like the moustache or an accent.

Yes, Im a New Yorker, born and bred. While Im not quite the L.A. snob that Woody Allen is, I do find myself happier in New York.

I don't know an actor who hasn't let himself down at some point. I imagine it's the same in politics. There's always the potential to self sabotage.

It's sort of cliche, but when you're playing drunk, your character is trying to appear sober.

I really feel incredibly fortunate to not be stereotyped. And it's something that I and my representatives are very keen on preserving.

I don't know how to play myself. I'm not interested enough in myself. That's just not how I was educated. That's not how I learned to become an actor. Acting is creating a character.

Having an opportunity to play different characters, and work in different mediums, that's what's fun. The worst question you could be asked is, "What do you like better, film, television or theater?"

Bad criticism has followed things like comic books or TV, and they put down a medium. A medium cannot be inherently good or bad.

Certain media attracts more pulpy or low-brow things, especially when they're young. Finding the best story, in any particular medium, is going to be as good, in any other medium.

Ocean waves gently rock the boat, As if to the tune of a lullaby.She sits still as the boat silently floatsUnder the infinite blue sky.

Rarely does the truth set us free. Usually it chains us to the earth like a ghost.

Do not allow watching food to replace making food.

What have I done? What horrid crime committed? To me the worst of crimes-outliv'd my liking.

I promised myself I wouldn't work again until I found something that excited me.

Church - Come here to learn, go forth to serve.

Art is brief. (Not in a temporal sense.) [...] Words are for concealment. Art is concealment.

The populace is like the sea motionless in itself, but stirred by every wind, even the lightest breeze.

Time and tide wait for no man, but time always stands still for a woman of 30.

My backside and my privates. I’m stuck so full of prickers, it makes me smart just to think on it.
