I do not believe in a simplistic and inflammatory view of good and evil. I believe this is a big world full of men, women, and children who struggle to eat, to love, to work, to protect their families, their beliefs, and their dreams.

Love is a mess, at best, and I figure it can be very real in spite of all the things people try to attach to it.

I don't see life as an opportunity to see how far you can go in the pursuit of pain, although I think I've challenged it a bit.

I'm a huge Woody Allen fan. Good movie, bad movie, it doesn't matter - I just like his movies.

I don't think you can get away with putting your talents in a toilet bowl and not having them flushed away. Forever. There is a level of murder of one's soul and of the culture that they're supposed to be feeding vitamins to.

Yeah, I had actually tried to stop acting before I made Dead Man Walking.

The bottom line is, you love your wife, you do your best with that.
