I think the thing to do is enjoy the ride while you're on it.

I think today we've gone so far technologically and also just emotionally and psychologically, I mean there's a lot of crime out there and there's a lot of stuff going on. People don't care that they're going to go to prison. They couldn't give a rat about the repercussions. They go out and they do what they do and they don't care about hurting anyone else.

For me, the question was, how can one take a live-action performance and put it in the parameter of one of those cartoons? How much can you get away with?

It really depends on what the screenplay is asking of you, and what your responsibility is to that character. You have the author's intent to deal with, you have the filmmaker's vision, and then you have your own wants, desires and needs for the character. It's collaborative. But I knew, right off the bat, that there was no way to go into some sort of pink-haired, clown-nosed character with Ronald McDonald shoes.

I can't tell my self that I'm a serious actor. But I'm serious person.

If there is any message to my work, it is ultimately that it's ok to be different.

My body is my journal, and my tattoos are my story.
