After writing a page, Hemingway would let it float to the ground. He never crumpled pages - he believed that if you crumpled them, you'd be insane in a year.

I'm a huge fan of 'The Exorcist.'

I don't think you necessarily identify and believe in the motifs of the character, but you have to want to play it and want to commit to the lines.

I had to ride a horse once. In 'King Arthur.' I said I could ride, but I had to call for lessons on the day the deal was signed. I started out on this little chunky thing and slowly moved up. It was months of work.

I'm sort of one of those weird actors who whenever I do a play, I think, "Oh, we should film this." As opposed to have to belt it out of ourselves in a theater auditorium.

I really believe you can carry yourself in such a way that people don't notice you.

America's been very, very good to me. I've been very lucky and worked a lot there, and appreciate and love the work that I've done.
