It's just acting. I take acting seriously but up to a point.

I weighed 190 when I got to boot camp, I came out at 178. I ate only the beans and tomato sauce.

I play tough guys in movies and behaved like one in front of the press because I thought that was what a man did.

If someone messes with me, I'm going to mess with them.

I am not as crazy as people think.

You must have to want it so badly, if there is any way you can live without it, get out of it. Being an unsuccessful actor is like having a skin disease. Make sure your passion is not misplaced.

Whatever it is, if you draw, you paint, you're a carpenter, you play football, the more you do it, you're a journalist, the more stories you write, the more people you interview and navigate your way through these different personalities to get your story, the better you're going to get at it. Acting's no different.
