I became an actor because I didn't know what else to do. Academically, I wasn't good.

I still don't know what the film was about because all I remember is a whole lot of technical dialogue about a body in a suitcase.

I could stay making nice safe BBC movies for the rest of my life, so I decided to risk it. It was a challenge, to work with Oliver Stone.

I’m not young anymore. I don’t wanna start over again.

I wanted to be a musician but I didn't have the talent for it, so I decided I wanted to be famous, so I became an actor.

If you’re an alcoholic or a drug addict, we flirt with death. We pull ourselves to the brink of destruction and if we’re lucky we pull ourselves back. We all have that in us.

I'm always cast in these strange men... that's not me, really.
