If you do things, whether it's acting or music or painting, do it without fear - that's my philosophy. Because nobody can arrest you and put you in jail if you paint badly, so there's nothing to lose.

I don't believe in nepotism. I don't much like the idea of parents who interfere.

I don't push my luck. I don't worry about the results and therefore everything seems to work out well. That's something I've learnt over the years. The whole thing about the acting business is that it's a hit-or-miss game so I keep my distance from it.

The art of acting is not to act. Once you show them more, what you show them, in fact is bad acting.

Life's too short to deal with other people's insecurities.

I'm one of the slowest drivers on the road. I mosey along. If you're doing anything too fast, including living life too fast, that creates sudden death. If I have to be somewhere on time, I make sure I leave early enough.

I have no illusions about my position in this world as an actor or anything like that. I'm very realistic. Reality is a very liberating thing.
