You think that if you are the best actor, you deserve the most or if you are the biggest star, you deserve the most. That race just isn't important to me.

I want to experiment; I want to keep growing. I didn't want to just sit back and rest on my haunches and do the things I knew I could do for a while.

I gave up meat when I was twelve. & One day I was cutting up a chicken for my mom, and I hit a tumor with the knife. There was pus and blood all over the place. That was enough for me.

You don't stay the hottest guy forever unless you're, um, Dionysus.
