If you're an actor, always be true to your character. If you are not an actor, have character and always be true to yourself.

I don’t get into these long-winded heavy discussions about character - do we do this or that or what. At the end of the day, what you gotta do is just go out there and do it.

I didn't have a problem with rejection, because when you go into an audition, you're rejected already. There are hundreds of other actors. You're behind the eight ball when you go in there.

Passion should always trump common sense.

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

I always wanted to direct. Directing is a lot more of a commitment though, a lot more time. I like directors who do very few takes, they know what they want.

Somebody steals from me, I'm gonna say you stole. Not talk to him for spitting on the sidewalk. Understand?
