I do like to work. Some jobs are better than others. That's the thing: You really don't know. I've enjoyed making movies for lots of different reasons. Sometimes, it was the other people. Sometimes, it was the fact that I was really good in it. Sometimes, it was the location. Sometimes, it was the paycheck.

I'm a character actor. I have to find work in good movies where I can make something of my role. I'm a very lucky guy to be in that kind of position. It's like a kid who dreams of becoming a baseball player and then he gets to play for the Yankees.

We have no way of knowing what lays ahead for us in the future. All we can do is use the information at hand to make the best decision possible.

Somebody said to me that I speak English almost like somebody for whom English is not their first language.

It's very hard to get a movie made. You could spend your life reading scripts that never got made.

I live sort of in the country and I like that. It's very quiet, it's beautiful.

Too many young actors are strutting about and doing films without having developed some of the depth you need to bring off certain kinds of roles. I think that's the problem with the system, where a lot of younger actors who haven't had a chance to develop suddenly become stars.
