I think the most difficult love begins with one's self. How you treat yourself is something you bring to your relationships.

Sometimes I say to myself, what are you doing in this absurd job? Why don't you go to Africa and help people? But I cannot help people, because I am a hypochondriac.

I'm not the kind of actor that gets crazy with [directors'] names, what draws me toward a project is the material itself.

I've always belonged to the street, and I always will. It's in my DNA.

I was raised not to be afraid to show emotion or imagination.

I used to be a good party boy. I'm old. I'm an old man. You pay the consequences. I'm just fine with a couple of drinks, no more than that.

But I remember the moment when my father died. I wasn't a very committed Catholic beforehand, but when that happened it suddenly all felt so obvious: I now believe religion is our attempt to find an explanation, for us to feel more protected.
