It's hard sometimes when you're in a regular high school, you just feel like the odd kid out. The great thing about going to an art school [is] it's kind of like it's all the odd kids. It's all the kids that don't fit in at their regular schools, because you're into something and excited about something that other kids really aren't into. When you go to art school, everybody's kind of on the same page.

I love what I do. If I have the opportunity to do what I do with people I admire, it's 10 times better.

I work out every day just to keep in shape. I feel like I never want to get stuck in a position where when you need somebody with great arms, you call Anthony Mackie. That hasn't been the calling card for my career, and nor do I want it to be.

I'm not Josh Brolin or Ryan Gosling. They're more noir than I.

Instead of becoming an engineer like my brother, I moved to New York to be an actor.

As an actor, the only thing we can do is play the truth at that moment. Because at any point in time if you play the future, or you play that you know something that the audience does not know, it kills the illusion of reality.

Even though homelessness reaches into the depths of despair, there's also a pride and beauty in it, as well.
