The script is your map of the world, isn't it? And if someone knows that if it's well-written, you get all of the beats, it will tell you everything you need to know.

Any actor who tells you that they have become the people they play, unless they’re clearly diagnosed as a schizophrenic, is bullshitting you.

My favorite meal would have to be good old-fashioned eggs, over easy, with bacon. Many others, but you can't beat that on a Sunday morning, especially with a cup of tea.

You choose your friends by their character and your socks by their color.

I enjoy playing characters where the silence is loud.

I had a guitar when I was 6 or 7, a plastic guitar with the Beatles' faces on it. It would be a collector's item now. It would fetch a hefty sum, I imagine.

My passion and energy get mistaken for anger.

Reality TV to me is the museum of social decay.

We're given a code to live our lives by. We don't always follow it, but it's still there.

Change is vital to any actor. If you keep playing lead after lead, you're really gonna dry up. Because all those vehicles wean you away from the truths of human behaviour.

I applaud anything that can take a kid away from a PlayStation or a Gameboy. That is a miracle in itself.

Truth is stranger than fiction...

When alone, concentrate on the fruits of the solitude, not on the poisons of it!

To both my parents, the world is a battle for attention, a war to be heard.

All men of action are dreamers.

Whenever there was a choice between music and anything else, music won hands down every time.

People intrinsically know there are secrets being held from us. Look at WikiLeaks: There are secrets that are really true to the world.

I lost my job, well I didn't lose it, I know where it is, there's just some other guy doing it now.

As you live out your desolation, you can be either unhappy or happy. Having that choice is what constitutes your freedom.

If people cannot be flawed in fiction there's no place left for us to be human.

Feeling good is what you should be doing every day of your life.
