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.

Movies don't create psychos. Movies make psychos more creative.

Whatever labels are being pinned on me have nothing to do with me.

I think when someone becomes an actor, people say, Aw, you could see it in him when he was little. But I think you can see that quality in every little kid.

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

I didn't even go to my prom. I didn't have one date in high school.

In this business, you're either Brad Pitt right away, or you're already going down the ladder.
