I find the world more absurd now than I did when I was a kid.

I don't like the way some actors, when playing a nasty character, will try to grab hold of something good about them.

I love acting. It's the one job I know of where you can go in, go through complete catharsis - emotionally, physically sometimes and mentally - and at the end of the day say, 'See you in the pub, guys.

There's no such thing as an actor giving positive criticism to a director. The minute you say 'Don't you think it would look nicer', that director's going to hate your guts. Particularly if it's a good idea.

What point is there to all the wealth and power that America may have if they can't look after its own?

Nine out of ten delinquents are frustrated actors.

Truth is I don't think God on a daily basis. I think politics, science.
