It's hard for two actors to be together. Take the traveling, for instance. It winds up being a long distance relationship, all the time, because one’s working here and one’s working there, or one’s staying at home and one’s off someplace else.

I'm not really a pitcher; I just play one in the movies.

I try to be eclectic in my choice of films. If I've done anything that's intentional in my career, it's to try to do as many different types of characters and as many different types of genres of movies that I can.

I grew up in Houston, and I remember we had separate drinking fountains, and black people sat in the balcony of the theater... We had an African-American housekeeper growing up who was really like my second mother. I thought it was silly - hatred just because of the color of somebody's skin.

Playing Bill Clinton is really, probably, the scariest time of my career.

Everybody just wants to be famous first, and then maybe learn how to act.

Sometimes in movies, I still have to be the hero, but it's not all that important to me anymore.
