I joined the air force. I took to it immediately when I arrived there. I did three years, eight months, and ten days in all, but it took me a year and a half to get disabused of my romantic notions about it.

Never let pride be your guiding principle. Let your accomplishments speak for you.

Is there a movie I think I should have won the Oscar for? Yeah. All of them.

I like producing but acting is the quintessential me, and I'm probably better at that than I am at anything. My heart has always been in the movies.

No one is really a method actor, everyone has their way of going about it, preparing for it, but method is preparation, it's what you do to prepare. So my method is to read the script. Some actors' method is to read the script a hundred times and in the doing of it, to immerse themselves in as much of the reality as possible. Me, I believe strictly in acting. If I am out of breath, I'm out of breath. I ain't running nowhere.

I avoid seeing myself while I'm working on role so I won't see "me."

I don't know what my favorite film of mine is... But I think the most important film I was in was Glory.
