There are many directors in the middle range who've made mostly successful pictures, and then there are a few great directors who've had some successes and some failures. I suppose my life would be smoother if I wasn't almost totally enamored of the latter category.

I love working with women directors. They don't mind making you cute.

I can't hit on women in public any more. I didn't decide this; it just doesn't feel right at my age.

When I come up against a director who has a concept that I don't agree with, or maybe I just haven't thought of it or whatever, I'd be more prone to go with them than my own because I want to be out of control as an actor, I want them to have the control, otherwise it's going to become predictably my work, and that's not fun.

I have never lied to you, I have always told you some version of the truth.

If I were an Arab-American, I would insist on being profiled. This is not the time for civil rights. There are larger issues for Americans.

I don't have any plugs or tucks but people do what they want. I look at it as mutilation.
