I'm never going to be the lead actor guy. I'm real quiet and real happy and real fortunate to keep working. It's what I do. It's like the circus. I ran away and joined it a long time ago.

When I was in art college, I would be painting, and I would create something on a canvas that was actually quite attractive. But if I got frightened and tried to protect that, that canvas would die.

Figuring things out for yourself is the only freedom anyone really has. Use that freedom.

People are either enamored with me or wonder if they can take me.

I like to play bad guys, since good guys are always beaten up several times during the movie. Bad guys are beaten only once, in the end.

My M.O. over the years is that I make things better, where people give me that freedom.
