History is change happening one person at a time.

Part of the American ethos is that you want to leave something better for your kids than you had and I know that my parents felt that way and I know that my grandparents felt that way and everybody worked hard so that their kids had a better chance. I just don't want to be the first generation that doesn't do that.

As actors, we react to the material that's out there, and I probably just react more strongly to things that I feel will have some social value.

As somebody who makes his living in the movie business and wants to contribute to it, I think that the best chance I have of doing that is just consistently working with great directors.

We're here for such a short time. When your great-great-grandkids study history, don't you want them to be proud that you were part of the solution?

Liberty is a soul’s right to breathe.
