The value of work, and of always learning something new, and what it takes to achieve excellence. I really believe in those things that you have to dedicate yourself and spend time, that excellence is elusive. It's a little maddening, to try to have that level of discipline in your life, and I don't succeed all the time. But I do try.

No matter how much you change, you still got to pay the price for the things you’ve done.

I get to the point where I feel relaxed, and then I just shoot a ton of material and make a lot of different choices.

If we try to define our own moral universe, there's a price for that.

One of the things it channelled in me was that experience that I'd had of wearing a big red leather thing on my upper torso in Daredevil with a mask I couldn't see through and an outfit that completely inhibited movement, feeling humiliated and like a fool. I just recalled that.

I do the same thing for myself (as an actor) that I do for others.

I have a good instinct for what's real and what's not. I don't have to second-guess myself.
