I'm really happy with where I am, the movies in my life. Not satisfied, necessarily. But I won't put it on somebody else, blame anybody else for my position in the business. It's the choices I have made.

I'm definitely one of those people that what comes into my head falls out of my mouth.

That charge or that friction sometimes - if it's positive or negative - is inspiring, and it gets people to be I think creative, maybe.

For me, acting is all about the aesthetic. I just want to keep honing my craft. Not that I'm taking myself too seriously, but every artist should consider himself Picasso. Otherwise, you're doing yourself an injustice.
