Often times it's really hard for me to articulate why I connect to something.

What made me most courageous was that I realized I had to try to let go of that stereotype I had in my mind, that bit of homophobia, and try for a second to be vulnerable and sensitive. It was f**kin' hard, man. I succeeded only for milliseconds.

Really, contrary to popular belief, I like to have a good time and not take myself too seriously.

I fooled around with Heath Ledger and Michelle Williams got pregnant.

The Jake Gyllenhaal workout planstarts with growing long, long hairgorgeous greasy locks and then washing every day.Wash, shampoo, then condition. Washing works the biceps and then the triceps by conditioning. And vigorously rubbing all of your body with soap really defines the abs and the pectoral muscles. And if you do squats while you're bathing - that's it!

Even as an actor, I think like a storyteller. My parents raised us to look at the script.

I think you hear a lot of people say 'I support the troops' and all of that, but I really feel deeply that I do.
