De Niro is a classic example of somebody who is iconic and who sort of effortlessly puts actors at ease the moment you meet him. I think it's also just something that he innately does with people.

I don't really know what Hollywood is. I've never really known.

I guess I sort of just feel like I am lucky.

I'm good at disguising my feelings.

Somewhere along the line I made the switch and was able to look at the bright side rather than the dark sida all the time. Now I look at everything I have and think how lucky I am.

I think all actors have a sadomasochistic streak, because acting is kind of brutal, you know.

You know what I'd like to do? I'd like to play a bag lady.
