Meeting the person you are going to be playing is very unique.

Sometimes the person who is the most logical is the person whom we call insane.

While the sciences are hugely important, let us not leave behind a childs imagination.

I terribly miss - we all miss, I think - somebody like the great producer Irving Thalberg. He had a foot in both camps: He understood us creative people. And he understood the money people.

You risk working with this director, you risk making this movie, you risk working with another actor you don't know. It makes your heart beat faster. And it keeps you interested.

You have to always be ready, always be alive, and always be willing to move in a new direction.

The only thing worse than a loser is someone who won't admit he played badly.
