I think there's a form of honesty, because I used to be very honest with the press, and then it backfired on me, and I understood it.

I want my audience to know me for my work, not because of who I'm dating or what drugs I'm on or what club I went to.

To be an actor, a true actor, you have to be brokenhearted.

If I could meet my mother and marry her, I would. I would be with my mother now, if she weren't my mother, as sick as that sounds.

I've had to deal with all different types of situations - positive and negative and extremes of both.

If you asked an 18-year-old what they want to do with their life, and the options are 'Transformers' or Lars von Trier, he's probably shipping out for 'Transformers.' If you ask a 26-year-old what he wants to do, 'Transformers' or Lars von Trier, he'd probably pick Lars von Trier. So, my sensibilities are changing as I change.

I think I'm prone to not being a good guy in relationships.
