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.

I started acting because I was miserable and crazy and wanted to be someone else, to run around and scream in front of people without getting in trouble.

It's always very daunting to play someone who actually existed. You have to honor that, and be specific and accurate and try to make people believe that you're that guy, which is really hard.

That's one of the great things about acting - you get to pretend you're somebody else, which is great if you get bored with yourself.

Everything that happens on Wall Street only fortifies my opinion that there is in fact a more ludicrous industry than the entertainment industry.

I'm equally terrified of both comedy and drama. The only thing I'm really comfortable with is action.

I don't travel for fun, because I travel so much with my work; when I'm not working, I mostly want to stay home.
