I admire actors and artists who devote just as much time to their life as they do to their work.

I think that we all have within us the potential for almost anything. If we play close attention to our lives, then we can get at it somehow.

Working with Jim Sheridan for instance, we did this movie Brothers. Jim will ask anybody - we'll get a delivery on set, and like the poor delivery guy will be like, "Here's your pizza," and he'll be like, "Come over here. Come here. I want to ask you a question. Do you think this is real? What do you think? Should we do another take?" And they're like, "I, uh, you want your pizza?" There's no shame in everybody's ideas. There's no shame in somebody not knowing.

I hope that when the world comes to an end, I can breathe a sigh of relief, because there will be so much to look forward to

Crazy people don't sit around wondering if they're nuts.

I think that I have done work where I feel like I've challenged myself, and then what's even more confusing is I've done work where I think I've challenged myself and no one's responded to it, and no one's interested in it.

Theater has given me a different perspective on the way I approach films.
