Actors have to make you believe that it's happening for the first time and all that jazz and make it human and at the same time entertain you.

I am not as crazy as people think.

Now, if I think a scene should go a certain way and it goes another, I'm able to go that new way with ease.

I know that 20 years from now if anyone asks me one question, it will be, 'What was it like to be in Saving Private Ryan?

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

I'm trying to reestablish my career and do great work and give my kids the life they deserve.

I didn't come to Hollywood to drink or get high, and I don't want to be considered a cool actor - I want to be a great actor.
