The more you understand me, the less characters I can play.

I scored a 910 on my SAT. I didn't care about education. I don't know what I cared about.

As a kid I used to pretend I was John Denver, of all people, and play the guitar and sing Take Me Home, Country Roads.

My problem with interviews, one day I'll think one thing, and the next day I'll think the exact opposite.

I'm not the most talkative guy in the world.

What's the classical moment that every actor or actress deals with? A tragic thing. They get that blank, faraway look in their eyes. But in life, it's not that way.

I've just done a movie - Albino Alligator - with Viggo Mortensen, who's an actor I idolize. He influenced me in a way that has helped me move toward getting lead parts instead of supporting parts, merely through his presence. So now I tell everyone, as a joke, that I'm entering my Viggo Mortensen phase.
