A lot of films come out before they're finished.

I made career decisions that came from the part of me who wanted to shun the limelight.

I've always wanted to work with Paul Newman. I had a couple opportunities in the past, and I didn't take advantage of it, so it was really fun to be working with him

When Bush first got elected, the very first time there was talk of going to war with Iraq, the mainstream media gave his position total credibility. I didn't get it then, and I don't get it now

I listen to National Public Radio, which, to me at least, presents the most rounded view of things.

I think most people that are looked upon as doing something daring don't necessarily think of it that way-they do what they have to do.

I'm an actor who loves to direct film, if I find something that I'm compelled to do and want to spend three or four years doing. I really love the process, though. I might have to just say, "Yeah, I want to direct that," because I want to direct something, but that's just not the way my being is. It's got to be a necessity for me, otherwise I'll just keep acting.
