Honesty isn't enough for me. That becomes very boring. If you can convince people what you're doing is real and it's also bigger than life - that's exciting.

If you look at yourself as a star, you've already lost something in the portrayal of any human being.

The difference between a hero and a coward is one step sideways.

Hollywood loves to typecast, and I guess they saw me as a violent guy.
