It’s a shame...you just don’t see young people doing anything outside these days.

Our glorification of violence is ripping society apart. I don't want my children exposed to it.

Here are the good things about independent films: They do the more interesting, chancy scripts. They're run by love.

All modesty aside, I think I'm good at reading scripts. The way I read a script is as fast as I can, all in one sitting, and I don't read many of the stage directions. I only read enough stage directions to let me know where I am, because they're always so verbose and mostly horseshit. So I only read the dialogue, which allows me to see the movie in my mind's eye in real time.

Ninety percent of the preparation we do as actors is just jive. It doesn't do anything.

I have been working out for 30 years, staying in shape in the dream that someday I would get to play a sex scene. Finally I get one, and they cut it.

So many actors spend so much energy trying to remember the lines. It's so foolish. Guys are the worst.
