I feel a moral obligation to speak out at this key moment in human history - it is a moment for action.

I remember when I first started having these interpretations of these images, these clichés of what movie stars are and this and that, and they're egomaniacal pricks and tyrants, but in general, for the most part, they're nice people to tell you the truth.

There's so many intangible forces that come into play when making a film, I have no idea what the public will ultimately think of something that I do, let alone critics.

It's a tough thing-you get in a situation where you feel you have to be perfect all the time and it sucks.

I've always kind of made sure to maintain the sense of who I am and never be mean or cruel or snotty to anyone. Because, at the end of the day, it's not going to help you last in the business, and who wants to be around someone like that? I don't want to turn into 'that guy.' That guy!

If you're gonna let the character be the story, you better set a tone that allows the actors to do the best work they can do.

A single idea from the human mind can build cities. An idea can transform the world and rewrite all the rules.
