I don't like definitions. I like four-hour movies.

It's nice to be wanted in almost any capacity.

I am a really writer-oriented actor.

You can be as you choose to be. It's an act of discipline sometimes, but it can be done.

I wanted very much to do Traffic and at one point it looked like I was going to work on it. And then, of course, Catherine Zeta-Jones had her relationship with Michael Douglas and it suddenly didn't happen.

I work for the public, for the people who are paying to go to the cinema, rather than for the critics.

I've always felt that failure was a completely underrated experience.
