You're a disease. And I'm the cure.

We're all expendable. We think the world's going to stop when a pope dies, or a king. And then... life goes on.

If I just know in my gut that a film is going to work, I'll fight to the death over it, and I convince myself. When a movie is purely a money job, the film doesn't have the same sort of intensity, and the audience almost senses it, at least that's the way I perceive it. So, yeah, the idea is to do something that you truly, truly believe in.

All good actors are unpredictable, and a little crazy in a good way, because they feel more secure playing other people than themselves.

Once in one's life, for one mortal moment, one must make a grab for immortality; if not, one has not lived.

A lot of actors, and artists in general, never feel secure in love. They always feel everything's going to be taken away from them, professionally and personally; they're extremely emotional and volatile.

I learned the real meaning of love. Love is absolute loyalty. People fade, looks fade, but loyalty never fades. You can depend so much on certain people, you can set your watch by them. And that's love, even if it doesn't seem very exciting.
