From my point of view, it's very refreshing to play a regular human being and not someone from another dimension. When I say "not act," what I mean is just to be as natural and as normal as possible.

I don't seem to be able to learn from experience or anything useful. History doesn't help me. Precedents don't inform my experience.

I'm not a World War II buff. I know a little bit about it, I was taught the other side of the story in school, so it was unfamiliar to me, the idea of a German resistance, and yet it was considerable.

There is something, yeah, I mean traditionally it's more fun to play bad guys than it is good guys and when you're playing a bad guy, yeah, the fun in it is to see how scary you can be, how horrible you can be. And it's surprising what you come up with.

I'm one of those weird people who doesn't even own a computer.

I did pick up a guitar once, but the strings hurt my fingers so I put it down again.

Hunger is almost like something the West does. It's almost like the direct result of the way the West performs.
