I don't remember who wins awards [Oscars]. I've won a few but what I really remember are movies. I love films, so I'm not concerned about speculation about winning things because I really enjoy being in films that last longer than an opening weekend. That's my goal in life.

Failures are infinitely more instructive than successes.

I don't know if winning at any cost is wrong or not. There are times I've thought that the end justified the means.

Run for office? No. I've slept with too many women, I've done too many drugs, and I've been to too many parties.

What I try to do is make sure that the directors I'm working with are on the same page and want to do the same kind of films. You can really protect yourself as an actor if you work with really good people. It can hide a lot of flaws along the way.

"Is Art worth dying for?" Well I don't know a single inanimate object that's worth dying for.

As you get older and ease your way into being a character actor you have to be comfortable with where you are in life and career, and I'm very comfortable with what I'm doing - working on projects I'm proud of.
