You got to know what's worth keeping and what's worth letting go.

One of the great things about acting is you can do things that in real life would get you in trouble. I think that's something I figured out pretty early on.

What I'm angry about, and I've gone on record saying this, is I think that financiers get away with murder. They realize they can get something for nothing and they won't settle for anything else. There's something called a Schedule F. If I work for a Schedule F contract that basically means I'm doing the movie for free because by the time I pay all my commissions and taxes there's barely anything left for me to live on. This whole notion that you do work that you love for very little money and then you go out and do something you hate to make money.

Plenty of people are onto the emptiness but it takes real guts to see the hopelessness.

I think if you watch a lot of what I do, you're going to ultimately walk away seeing me. I can't hide - that impression is a personal impression people have of me.

I've always been happy just to be working. It doesn't really matter for me how many people are familiar with my name or my picture, or whatever.

That could sound arrogant, I guess, but sometimes I feel like I have a bit of a Zelig thing. I'll blend in wherever. I'm from the South, so I'll have a Southern accent when I'm home. But if I'm up here in New York, I have a British accent.
