I dont think playing a villain is my greatest talent.

That's where I'd like to be: when the business says here's a good actor who is marketable so we can use him. Just that.

As for lawyers, it's more fun to play one than to be one.

I've always done what I thought was good if I could live on what they were offering-and sometimes if I couldn't. So even when I was broke, my career didn't lack for interest.

The Killing Fields, my character's teachings frame the movie and the argument of his lectures is the challenge of dealing with the painfulness of life in the absence of faith.

I think people have some control over what they want; there's a relationship - maybe not automatic - between what you want and get.

We're paid to care. That's what actors get their money for. But the main goal is not for the actors to be frustrated at the end of the show, but for the audience to be throwing their shoes at the television set. That's what we're trying for.
