You know, I've had an incredible career and I'm blessed.

Different directors offer you different things, and it's not necessarily the most obvious things.

The definition of insanity in Texas is so insane that it's impossible to be insane in Texas.

I particularly love theater, I just love a challenge, and always have, and will do anything to make it interesting. I'll try anything, really, as long as it's a challenge and you can have some fun doing it.

The thing is, I've never been a handsome leading-man type, so let's not kid ourselves.

Let's not get too precious about it: actors are not heart surgeons or brain surgeons. We are just entertaining people.

I'm very pragmatic in that I know there are very few greats in anything. I got lucky just to have gotten two of the real great filmmakers very early on. Better to have had them than to not have had them. I've been really fortunate. That's the key relationship on a movie: the director and the actor. Of course, you can't compare the experiences. When you're in your early 20s, you're a very different person. It was a very exciting time, and my whole world was changing. Now I'm looking back, and hoping I can still offer something. Still do good work.
