I like stories that leave you wanting more, leave you wondering, but don't tell you everything.

I love rehearsing, but a lot of directors don't, and some actors don't.

I was raised speaking English and Spanish. And I also speak Danish. And I can get by in French and Italian. I've acted in Spanish and English, but when something has to do with emotions, sometimes I feel I can get to the heart of the matter better in Spanish.

When you're under stress as a human being, you behave oddly and your relationships with people become strained.

Saying you are a patriot does not make you one; wearing a flag pin does not in itself mean anything at all.

You know, real life doesn't just suddenly resolve itself. You have to keep working at it. Democracy, marriage, friendship. You can't just say she's my best friend. That's not a given, it's a process.

I grew up with horses when I was a kid in Argentina. I like them. I respect them. I'm careful around them. You never know what they're going to do. They're endlessly interesting. I've had some good acting partners that were horses over the years.
