The most talented people are always the nicest.

Never stop asking yourself whether you can do things better. Keep testing every aspect of your business to the nth degree, and challenge every one of your assumptions. The tougher you are on yourself now, the tougher your business will be out there in the real world.

My acting technique is to look up at God just before the camera rolls and say, 'Give me a break.'

There are a lot of guys in Hollywood who clap you on the back just a little too hard.

Actors have bodyguards and entourages not because anybody wants to hurt them - who would want to hurt an actor? - but because they want to get recognized. God forbid someone doesn't recognize them.

What I do quite honestly and seriously and not in any way being humble is not as important as what the garbage collector does. People make actors important.

I won't mention names, but in my career, the most talented people invariably are the easiest and nicest to get along with.
