I realized a career is built as much on what you don't do as what you do do.

There are some movies that I absolutely hate but someone else loves - people love things for different reasons.

I have great luck. I'm used to people dying and going away. Not used to it exactly - but I expect it. Like, whenever people go off on a trip, I save their phone messages because I think they might die.

Because I do so many action-oriented films, I started working with stunt people doing fight training, then I found it to be just great exercise. Also I like to be fit, so I've continued on with fight training. Right before I got to do 'Conan,' I was fighting off four guys. Its great fun. And strange.

I don't believe in rules. I would be happy to be climbing a pyramid when I'm 70. And I know I will be.

I did a cover for Rolling Stone the other day and it was a kind of crazy lack of outfit. I thought, "Oh, Lord. I'm never going to be Jane Austen in a film now!" 'Cause that's what I'd really like to do.

It's my job to spread deviance to the American youth.
