I've decided as an actor the only, the power I have really is in the performance. It's the only real place I get to sort of communicate.

It's one of the most beautiful scripts [Brokeback Mountain] I've ever read, and it was Ang Lee, and at the time Heath [Ledger] was a friend of mine - before we even shot the movie - and always sort of alluring to me.

There are a lot of different things that are spinning and connecting when your family sees what you do.

My mum and dad are pretty amazing chefs and they spent most of my childhood cooking really extravagant things for my sister and me.

Every man goes through a period of thinking they're attracted to another guy.

As an actor, no matter what, you're at the whim of so many other people all the time.

I don't think I'm sharp enough to not prepare and come on set and kill it.
