For Cider House Rules, I was doing a New England accent.

Wherever I live, if there isn't a restaurant I want to go to of a certain type, then I open it. That's all. For selfish reasons.

In my day, the drug was alcohol and the weapon was a fist, so it was very sort of innocent and primitive. Now you've got drugs, guns, and knives, which are so lethal.

I'm forever testing myself. As a person and as an actor, I have no sense of competition.

I never bring a role home with me. The moment they say, 'It's a wrap,' it's gone completely. I'm a totally ruthless professional, and life is my family, not my work.

I don't like getting up early in the morning and learning all that stuff. I work with offers that I can't refuse.

You don't sacrifice your individuality; you sacrifice a lot of freedom.
