I'm not handsome in the classical sense. The eyes droop, the mouth is crooked, the teeth aren't straight, the voice sounds like a Mafioso pallbearer, but somehow it all works.

The world meets nobody halfway. When you want something, you gotta take it.

I never quite understood these actors - though I envy them sometimes - who can lie out for a year or two. I feel as though time is a real pressing issue, and I want to get as much work done in the time that I have left.

I think I'm a much better painter than an actor.

I am not the richest, smartest or most talented person in the world, but I succeed because I keep going and going and going.

No one's life is totally morbid. Even on a subtle scale there's little flashes of enlightenment and of happiness and joy.

When you're on top and you lead the parade, everyone's there throwing lilies and lilac water on your head. But when those parades have gone by and there's a storm in your heart, there are very few people that are going to sit there and listen to you bemoan life.
