There are roles that you chase sometimes.

That's what sets apart one actor from another, and that you can't teach. You can't give someone that. When you're working, putting a character together, or in a scene, that's where things will happen that you have to have the intuition to notice them, and to register them.

I know I'm pretty, but I ain't as pretty as a couple of titties.

On set I keep myself to myself; I'd rather the director speak up. I'm not gonna direct a younger actor. I think the power of example works best, actually.

I did have a knack for playing weirdos. There's still sort of this perception of me out there as being this crazy guy.

In the past, I’ve had my share of good reviews, but it’s always the crazy, scary, weirdo guy. I don’t even know how it happened. Look at me. I mean, when I’m naked, I look like a bald chicken. How did I get to be a scary bad guy?

Wanting to be a good actor is not good enough. You must want to be a great actor. You just have to have that.
