If I had done 'Titanic,' it would have made, probably, $200,000 - worldwide. So I think my life would have been very, very similar.

I wish I had more of the hero gene, but I don't think I'd be very good at playing one.

All you really have when you're acting is the confidence and your ability to manage and tell a story by creating a character.

From here on out, I am only interested in what is real. Real people, real feelings, that's it. That's all I'm interested in.

I always end up taking people that are morally ambiguous.

A man tells his stories so many times that he becomes the stories. They live on after him, and in that way he becomes immortal.

I wish I could say that when I didn't agree with a director I defer to him, but I think sometimes I'm a little self-righteous.
