Critics should be to actors what ornithologists are to birds: they can write all they want, but it shouldn't affect them.

You never undertake a project because you think other people will like it - because that way lies madness - but rather because you believe in it.

I'm good at being on my own. As a kid, I was always in my room alone, so I have a high threshold for it. If I'm bored, I'll read. Hanging around doesn't go well with me.

I think I can be closed in. I can close this outer shell, cut myself off and be quite cold. I can cut other people off if I need to. I don't think I'm angry, though... Maybe my wife would disagree.

Life is easy greediness adds complexity

Success, however you judge what that even means, brings with it certain pressures.
