I can't stand not being able to joke around on set, so I have to.

The term 'serious actor' is kind of an oxymoron, isn't it? Like 'Republican party' or 'airplane food.'

I don't like watching myself in the movies because I don't like being aware of the product. I like the process. I enjoy that.

I always felt like I was meant to have been born in another era, another time.

I'm a big fan of revenge, I think [Sweeney Todd] it's a story of a man who clearly has obsessions to avenge the horror that happened to him.

Love is not blind; it simply enables one to see things others fail to see.

With any part you play, there is a certain amount of yourself in it. There has to be, otherwise it's just not acting. It's lying.
