Please, God, please, don't let me be normal!

It is one proof of a good education and of true refinement of feeling, to respect antiquity.

I wouldn't recommend it, because art school is a funny business. Yes, if you can find a situation where they'll give you money to live at the school and do whatever you want and pay for all your materials, if you're a painter or maybe a filmmaker, do it. But acting should be the most fun thing in the world; you're surrounded by other people who are as obsessed with Anton Chekhov as you are.

I really enjoy working with younger actors. I just feel like we're all peers together.

Usually it's the guys that don't follow you around, who you're attracted to!

I always find it particularly difficult to work in New York because there are so many things to do.

I have always been uncomfortable with a series of movies. I hate that word 'franchise' - it always makes me think of French fries. What I felt each time was that we were going for broke, that this was going to be the last in the series. You can't count on anything.
