It's easy to get laid when you're rich and famous. When you're broke and unknown, it takes skill.

As I was coming up on the stage, there was one source that could make or break you, the New York Times. Inevitably there would be one actor singled out for a better review, or worse, than somebody else. The effect of that was cancerous, divisive.

Part of being a man is learning to take responsibility for your successes, and for your failures. You can't go blaming others, or being jealous. Seeing somebody else's success as your failure is a cancerous way to live.

I didn't get into this so I could talk about my work, my movies. You become an actor to act.

There are some actor secrets you keep sometimes, and you want to keep.

I just let the work speak for itself. An actor is not afraid to take risks; to put on different hats; to be a good guy, a bad guy, a victim, an abuser. There are all kinds of people in the world, and playing them is what acting is all about.

There's the most resistance to an actor singing. It's like I'm being disloyal to my industry.
