My tattoo is of a cannon in Vancouver that I got in a fleeting moment of stupidity maybe 14 years ago. A lot of people have really beautiful tattoos, and I get real tattoo envy. But then other people basically just treat them like bumper stickers for their bodies.

I learned discipline from my father. Not in terms of corporal punishment, but being determined in whatever you do, and sticking with it.

I know there are actors we all want to beat up a little. I think it's important to do whatever it takes, and whatever it takes sometimes involves some physical or mental discipline. There's a lot at stake.

If you ask me to describe my relationship, I mean - words are too clumsy to accurately describe how I feel in that regard, particularly in an interview. It’s a strange thing.

If you have a dishonest moment, you're going to lose the audience. So I had to not only light myself in the scenes.

I'm not one to mythologize other actors too much, but obviously Sandy Bullock is a gorgeous woman.

I come from a family of cops, and all of them share that understanding that they put their lives on the line.
