When you have 400 people watching you making a movie, it doesn't go where you want it to go. It's a lot of pressure.

My father was always getting excited about something. It's genetically inside me somewhere.

Those who have the ability to take action have the responsibility to take action.

I love working with younger actors because they always come into the game full of energy and ideas that challenge me and keep me learning and stimulated.

I always say, if you think it’s over the top then tell me where the top is first. I don’t think anyone can. But if you can tell me where the top is then I’ll tell you whether or not I’m over it.

My mother was a dancer, so I like to use the body as part of the instrument of acting.

I didn't play the Ghost Rider in the first movie. That was a stuntman. In this film, the Ghost Rider feels much more alive because I did put some thought into how he should walk and into how he should move. I was so into the character, in fact, that I would paint my face with white and black makeup to look like a skull. And I put on blacked-out contact lenses, so I almost looked like an Afro-New Orleanian voodoo icon by the name of Baron Samedi. Oh man, I would walk around the set without saying a word to anybody, and I could see the fear in my co-stars' and co-directors' eyes.
