No matter what heights you achieve, even if you're Brad Pitt, the slide is coming, sure as death and taxes.

Sometimes it seems like this is the choice - either kick ass or kiss ass.

It is that, but really, it's about how we don't recognise the little things in life, or appreciate the little things in life like belonging. A sense of belonging is a big thing today.

I'll see a beautiful girl walking up to me and I'll think, Oh, my God, I can't believe my good luck. But then she'll say, 'Where's your son?' or 'My mother loves you'.

Someone's always saying, "It's not whether you win or lose," but if you feel that way, you're as good as dead.

The most talented people are always the nicest.

I've never been difficult to anybody or with anybody on a picture. Especially when you're in that nice status of hierarchy of actors and actresses who get to approve directors. Because once you make that choice, it's my belief that the director's boss.
