I can't tell you how many times in the '90s I'd meet somebody, we'd be having a nice time, and they'd sigh and go, 'This is exactly like Before Sunrise.' And I'd have to get up and leave.

My favorite stories are human, so I'm always looking for...

I've always watched actors on the red carpet getting drunk and making idiots of themselves and now I'm happy to join their ranks

Happiness is in the doing not in getting what you want.

'Brooklyn's Finest,' this is the kind of movie that's why I want to be an actor, to tell real-life stories. This is where I feel my job is, to interpret life.

I love working on scripts. I love coming up with ideas about what people would dress like or talk like. I love all that.

The truth is that the more you get paid, the less freedom you have. They never pay you for nothing.
