This great imperialistic world called the United States has made us believe that an Oscar is the most important thing in the world for an actor. But if you think about it for five minutes you realise it cant be.

I want to act because I don't know how to do anything else.

But don't call me an actor. I'm just a worker. I am an entertainer. Don't say that what I am doing is art.

I enjoy my job as long as I can create a character, otherwise it's boring.

I will work with a director who has good material because at the end of the day, that's what counts.

Many people out there don't have a choice, in choosing their friends and the people they're being manipulated by.

Age has no reality except in the physical world. The essence of a human being is resistant to the passage of time.
