I'm a big believer that the script is your bible.

It would be nice to do a movie where I didn't have to choke the girl to get her.

You know, I started out really hot out of the box. Then I've definitely had and up-and-down career. And when things started cooling off again, it frustrated me.

The more you think about something, the more important it becomes, the more important it is to you, and the more important it will become to the audience.

To me, being a gangster was better than being President of the United States.

You could just do independent movies, but I like bigger kind of studio movies, at least some of them.

Just by the nature of what we do it kind of gets you out of the regularities of life. Playing pretend for a living is a good way to have a release and playing make believe is a good way of getting away from it and doing things like this. So I think work gets me away from life.
