If there's anything disgusting about the movie business, it's the whoredom of my peers.

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

It's only in innocence you find any kind of magic, any kind of courage.

I had a house burn down once, and everything in life burned except my family, and it was so liberating. I didn't have a bad moment about it. It sort of reinvigorated my interest in a lot of things. I wonder if there should be some kind of anarchy.

I think if you want good things to happen for a country like Haiti, then you need to provide the circumstances where the Haitians can do that.

I think that I've still not been successful at playing the role of the retired actor, and I'd like to work on that.

Women are the best. The toughest. The bane of my existence. And I'll forever fall for it.
