Honored delegates, leaders of the world, I pretend for a living.

I've never known a situation in my career where a terrible script turned into a movie that was out of this world or was a success.

I've really only had one (dream) since I got into this business at 13 years old, which was to be in this business forever. Once I did my first television commercial, I caught that itch and that bug. I want to be a part of pieces of art - as far as cinema is concerned - that people will want to see for generations to come. That's my dream.

I have no problem playing anyone who has different politics than me. In fact, I don't take that into consideration at all. You have to find something sympathetic in a man. It's that common ground you need to connect with someone.

Playing Arnie was fun because everything I did was spontaneous.

I'm not a big dreamer. I never have been. I remember fragments of my dream, and I try to take a traditional sort of approach to researching this project and doing preparation for it.

That's the magic of moviemaking. You clearly identify one scenario with the other, and it's a completely different experience.
