Brad Pitt is a dude who just wants to make good movies. He's not afraid to surround himself with the greatest actors, which I always appreciate because I've also seen actors who only want to surround themselves with weak actors because it makes them look better. That ends up making a poorer movie.

I've always liked stories. I'm always reading, ever since I was a kid. I've always been reading and wanting to be in some other world.

Everyone thinks their family is the craziest family in the world. Like, 'My God, my family's crazy!

I have such a crush on Shirley Manson. I think she's the coolest thing.

I'm an ensemble guy, I guess - that comes from the theater. If I ever won some kind of award someday, I imagine I'd try to be very gracious, but in the end, I just want to keep working. I don't see why that, if you just put your mind to it and keep sowing the right seeds, you can't keep doing the things you want to do.

I have been really lucky in my career, with the diversity of it. I get to play really complex people.

It's kind of my whole philosophy as an actor. I think that's what we're supposed to do is play a wide range of characters - or it's just what I like to do, I should say. I like to try to be as different as I can from one thing to the next.
