The thing about film-making is I give it everything, that's why I work so hard. I always tell young actors to take charge. It's not that hard. Sign your own cheques, be responsible.

When I'm promoting a film, I'm not going to get caught up in anything else, and that includes all my personal things.

The exciting part of acting, I don't know how else to explain it, are those moments when you surprise yourself.

Perception and reality are two different things.

I'm always around my mother and sisters. I always wanted to be a father, a husband.

I don't care what someone believes. I don't care what nationality they are. But if someone wants to get off drugs, I can help them. If someone wants to learn how to read, I can help them. If someone doesn't want to be a criminal anymore, I can give them tools that can better their life.

Nothing ends nicely, that's why it ends.
