Fame is not the worst thing. I went to dinner the other night, and the girls in the restaurant ignored me. It was so annoying.

Obviously people don't want other people to tell them how to think or what to believe, or to tell them what's right politically and what's wrong.

As we progress into the twenty-first century, anyone who considers themselves a realist will have to make the environment a top priority.

I hate complaining about paparazzi, I hate complaining about being recognised, because if I ultimately didn't want to be an actor or in the public eye, I would quit doing what I do. That's not the reason I do it, but I love the work so much that it's worth it.

I've gotten to play some pretty intense characters and I tend to think it's therapeutic for me.

[Success] always starts with the material; it always starts with the truth and honesty of the characters that you read in the screenplay and that's rarely something that can be remedied if it's simply not there by the time you shoot the film. Thank God we had that.

You have to enjoy life in the process. It may sound corny, but it's true. At the end of the day, we can't always achieve everything that we dream of but you do have to enjoy life in the process.
