If I had been with all the women that I was said to have been with, I wouldn't have had the time to shoot a single movie!

I'm only two years older than Brad Pitt, but I look a lot older, which used to greatly frustrate me. It doesn't anymore. I don't have to fit into that category and get trounced by Tom Cruise and Brad.

In the time that we're here today, more women and children will die violently in the Darfur region than in Iraq, Afghanistan, Palestine, Israel or Lebanon. So, after September 30, you won't need the UN - you will simply need men with shovels and bleached white linen and headstones.

Anytime there's an actual grassroots movement that isn't funded by people trying to create a grassroots movement, I find that interesting.

I find politics in almost every country I go to be incredibly different and incredibly similar and I'm never surprised by anything.

I've had some success at writing and directing, and I like it. It's infinitely more creative than just acting, and I have things I want to say and do.

I've been lucky enough to do a few films that will last longer than an opening weekend and those films are the ones I'm proud of.
