I always feel that art in general and acting in particular should make the audience a little uncomfortable, to slap them and wake them up.

You can change a person in their exterior aspects, but the soul remains, it still is there, and especially if that person has been changed involuntarily.

I don't want anything I don't deserve, but if they offer me more money, I'm not stupid.

I am not an action hero. That is not the only thing I did in my career. Many people know me because of my work with Pedro Almodóvar, or theater or films that I have done, aside from that. But, that was a part of my career that I embrace. I loved movies like Zorro and Desperado and The 13th Warrior, and other movies like that, that I have done and that contain some action, but it's not the only thing that I do.

I've done many different movies in many different contexts.

I get caught up in my bubble of reading, writing, or music.

In my personal life, I am very contemplative.
