I like to take things as they come and, as much as possible, not force anything. I think I could wind up somewhere completely different five years from now, something completely removed from acting - I could be perfectly content studying photography or English literature. At the same time, I love what I'm doing right now and could see doing this for a very long time.

I don't see how you can give someone who lied to the extent that he did a second chance in the same line of work.

A long time ago, in a country not so far away, I was eight years old, doing my best Darth Vader imitation.

As an actor, I usually try and keep my motivation within the context of what the character is going through.

I try to stay away from the L.A. scene as much as possible. I feel it helps me to better prepare for my roles if I am not too involved in that whole thing.

Actors are observers. They're trying to have an understanding of human sensibility. And how do you have that accurate observation if you regard yourself as someone of great importance? When you're the one constantly being observed, because they view you as a celebrity? It's all wrong.

One of the things I find about acting is that the less the audience knows about the actor, the more they're able to believe in him in the role.
