I never retreat from films, as it were, I simply indulge in other interests, that's all.

I was a savage for so many years of my life. There was some seed of determination in me that I was not conscious of. I was mostly consciously getting into trouble and drunk.

I don't do all of this as an indulgence. I do it because I'm not a good enough actor to not do it.

I'm a warrior when it comes to pursuing roles.

Acting is about people. Other people. Otherwise, you're not acting, you're doing monologues.

I like to cook things very slowly.

Periodically over the years I've always taken periods of time away from acting.
