There is a certain combination of anarchy and discipline in the way I work.

I think it's important to have had at least a few years of obscurity, where people treat you like everybody else.

There's nothing more ironic or contradictory than life itself.

Whenever there is any doubt, there is no doubt.

When you are working hard, you don't have time for anything other than what you are doing in the scene and what the director wants.

Movies are hard to make, and you have to work toward a common ethic and do your best. You don't want to work with people who don't care or who are acting out some neurotic, crazy thesis on the set.

You draw on whatever’s relevant to the part you’re playing; it makes it more personal.
