I am forever a romantic. I try to bring that into my work. I try not to be fooled by romance. Or work.

In my worst moments, I try to think about loving instead of hating. Creation versus destruction, know what I'm sayin'?

I think it's really special to be a part of something that people are still watching or thinking about or interested in, or remember fondly many years later. I don't think it's annoying at all.

Actors can write and produce too. Then when I was working on Jason Bourne­ - having had that experience - instead of going back to my trailer and being separate from everyone else, I would sit behind the monitor and watch Paul Greengrass work and be much more included in the process. That was new for me and really enriching.

I’ve really turned a corner recently in terms of not taking work too seriously, so it is much easier for me to not take my work home.

With film, so much is in the director's hands. Once something is cut together - unless you're in the editing room - you don't really remember what the alternatives are.

Theater makes working in movies or TV seem like a cake-walk.
