I'll walk through fire to do what I do because the movie business, when it's right, is the coolest art form ever invented.

I'm kind of one of these guys who wants to play everything once before it's all over.

I was working more on a primal, instinctive level. And it just seemed to suit me; it seemed to suit my concentration span, it seemed to suit my personal style of performance, and I have fallen in love with film acting.

I lost 90 pounds and my blood pressure went down to a normal level and the salt in my urine disappeared. And that was when I had to make the transition from fat character actor to thin character actor.

As an actor or anybody as a human being, I feel more and more like I want to spend time doing something significant. Because what's the alternative? Spend your life wasting your time.

Distortions control my self-image, like they do for a lot of us. It's irrational.

The great thing about arriving at this age is that I don't even care about my career anymore.
