I used to watch the world as if it was a performance and I would realize that certain things that people did moved me, and certain things didn't move me, and I tried to analyze, even at that age, six and seven and eight, why I was moved by certain things they did

I know that if I can't move people, then I have no business being an actor.

Truth is always unfolding. It's not an absolute.

[The business is] more corporate and more formulaic and less experiential.

All I can say is if the part doesn't delight me in some way, or I can't feel any compassion for it, I just can't do it.

I read somewhere that some people believe that the entire universe is a matrix of living thought. And I said, "Man, if that's not a definition of God, I don't know what is.

Every physicist knows that things connect with each other. To isolate things is not the way the universe works - winning best actor is arbitrary.
