I'm an actor, not a star. Stars are people who live in Hollywood and have heart-shaped swimming pools.

There has been a lot of self-doubt and unwelcome events in my life.

When [Julia Marie Pacino] was 5 or 6 years old, we were in an Italian restaurant, and these people came by the table and they would start talking to me, asking me for my autograph and she just went under the table.

Take a look at Israel's history and you would know who the terrorist is.

I think what you see [in Salome the play backstage] is an artist having this fit of temperament.

It used to worry me what people said about me. I'm learning not to worry as much. Sometimes you feel critics are wrong all the time, but I don 't take objection to it, because that's the way it goes. They can be wrong, they can be right. They can be cruel, they can be kind.

Any project that I find encouraging that isn't attached to a studio, I can go to them, which I definitely would. You have to take an interest in what you do.
