I get very homesick, but otherwise it's a great privilege to get to travel for work.

I think I'm an abstinence symbol. If I take my shirt off, people will not have babies.

I think it's my nature to - every time I hear about an award or a nomination, it makes me realize how much I must've been losing before, because I was not aware that every major city had these critics' awards.

I prefer playing characters that are going through turmoil. Most movie characters are just in service to the story.

I did children's theater when I was younger, and then when I was about 14 I started doing theater in New York City.

When you do a play, you have the kind of nightly feeling of accomplishment. But you also have the daily dread of the doing it every night. And because you're doing the whole thing every day, it's like climbing up the mountain every single night. With a movie it's like climbing the mountain very slowly, over months of filming.

All of my pleasures are guilty, but that's just the way I'm wired.
