I've been changed watching films or reading books or hearing music, and that helps you to live your life.

A director could be 20 years old and an actor 60, or vice versa; it doesn't matter. It's about connecting sensibility and energy together, and having a vision that goes together and anchors the film as you go along.

My only ambition is to be true every moment I am living.

It's never been my purpose to become an American icon, or more famous or richer.

I wanted to work with people from the world, with different minds and different visions.

I'm very patient and always willing to try things but I have some resistance as well because I have my own vision. I have resistance sometimes because I see a director who's freaking out and wants to have control and they sometimes anticipate about what I'm going to be doing or not.

As an actor, I have to be fulfilled in the roles that I play; it has to be a journey for me to learn something or involve myself.
