You do feel kind of nervous about any film you take on.

I grew up doing musicals. I've done so many musicals in my life, I kind of got them out of my system. But, I certainly would be open to them. Rocky Horror Show is a big favorite of mine.

I tend to project my father figure onto any director that I'm working with, or mother, if I'm working with a female, or it can be confused.

The thrill of coming home has never changed.

My problem is I'm an addictive personality. I can't have one coffee. I can't eat one piece of chocolate. I can't have a little bit of drugs.

There's many more films being made in America than there are in Australia. You make four hundred and fifty films a year, we make twenty-five.

Just because there are things I don't remember, doesn't mean my actions are meaningless. The whole world doesn't just disappear when you close your eyes, does it?

I'm definitely not non-chalant. I have to leave nonchalant at home when I'm working on something, otherwise I just don't feel like I'm committed, and I've gotta be fully committed.

Doing that hunt scene was really quite demanding. I actually broke a rib during that scene. And then all the scenes after that became quite challenging, just breathing and laughing.

I think when people are repressing things, or burying things, that can manifest in all sorts of ways.

The majority of people who join law enforcement are doing it for good, moral reasons, but then there are the few who get through, where you go, 'Whoa, hold on a second. What's this guy doing here?'

With the best of intentions you toss me a lifeline. Failing to see how a piece of rope will do me any good, I ignore it and drown.

Though lovers be lost, love shall not.

Less make-up is better, and it's always better to let your natural beauty shine. Essentially, be happy with your appearance.

It is normal to give away a little of one's life in order not to lose it all.

The nice thing about the world that I've been able to inhabit for the last couple of years is that I'm given a lot of freedom. Not all artists really get that.

I couldn't believe when I first got a fan letter from Al Pacino, it was unreal.

Official history is merely a veil to hide the truth of what really happened. When the veil is lifted, again and again we see that not only is the official version not true, it is often 100% wrong.

Reading yields a wish to write, I think, except if the reading is dull and uninspiring.

Manuscripts do not burn.

The banyan tree does not mean awakening, nor does the hill, nor the saint, nor the European couple. The lotus is a symbol of regeneration.
