If you have an enemy, then learn and know your enemy, don't just be mad at him or her.

It was never my dream to be famous. I didn't start acting to be a movie star. I started in the theater and my desire was to get better at my craft. It's still my desire. I don't consider myself a movie star, nor do I really have the desire to be one. I'm just an entertainer. An actor who works hard at his craft. Whatever labels people give me, that's not really me or part of my process.

Talent comes from God. If you have been given some, then value it, cultivate it, work and develop it.

I just try to be honest and true to the character and play the part.

One good thing about acting in film is that it's good therapy.

After directing the first film it feels kind of tricky being back to being in front of the camera, because I've always got one eye over there, kind of thinking of what they are doing, and how the shot is being composed. I think it takes a couple of films to just get back to just being an actor.

I didn't realise that Ridley Scott has never won an Academy Award.
