As an audience member, those studio films are fun. I like an adventure tale, and I also like to go see something that has more of a social pulse. I like to keep learning and trying new things. And if the scripts are good, it doesn't really matter.

Everything I put my name to and take part in, I want to be good. That's not saying it will always happen. But I want to make bold choices.

You want society to accept you; but you can’t even accept yourself.

If I'm playing a murderer, I don't go out and start murdering people.

People are complicated. Our behavior towards one another is strange. So I like opportunities to investigate that.

I suppose the doctor-patient relationship has that idea of transference. I think it's a special thing that doctors have. We all find doctors sexy. That's why there are so many TV shows about doctors.

At one point you think, well, it's funny, I could just be a starving actor... So if somebody were to pull the plug right now, there'd be no room for complaint.
