Don [ Handfield] was actually one of the first guys I met in town back in '94. He was an actor and a writer and all this stuff.

I feel connected to that idea of wanting to belong to something, to have a sense of purpose as a man on the planet.

In the 'Hurt Locker' there's a lot of me in there, a sense of humor, a man of few words and a lot of action.

I light candles because I want to have candles lit, not because I need to see!

I don't really think there's much difference between a character actor and a leading man besides aesthetics.

I'm attracted to those kinds of roles that could be good or could be bad, and you just don't know.

I was very shy when I was younger. But I did have a terrible temperament. I would get angry very quickly, but the rest of the time I was this big goofball, playing the drums in a band and making out with girls.
