Looking back, I wince at the careless way I tossed out my opinions.

I knew in my gut that there was something wrong with a system that couldn't fire its incompetents, and I had my share of incompetent college teachers.

If 'Black Balloon' had come out before 'The Mummy,' casting agents wouldn't have been able to see me for the first time in 'The Mummy.' But now that 'The Mummy' has come out before 'The Black Balloon,' that's a very good combination.

I'm not jumping into anything fast. I'm an actor that likes to choose my work and there's an element of good taste to my work.

Everything we do affects other people.

I teethed on books of heroes such as Winston Churchill, Abraham Lincoln and King David.

My habit of glorifying things far away in space and time, also contributed to my social isolation.
