A lot of the time I hate the theater. You think, 'I have to climb Mount Everest, again, tonight.' Oh, the theater is a scary place to be.

Give me a window and I'll stare out it.

I have a love-hate relationship with white silk.

If you could build a house on a trampoline, that would suit me fine.

I get stage fright and gremlins in my head saying: 'You're going to forget your lines'.

I've never been able to plan my life. I just lurch from indecision to indecision.

We're dead as a species if we don't tell stories, because then we don't know who we are.

I suppose with any good writing and interesting characters, you can have that awfully overused word [...] - a jouuuuuurney.

It would be wonderful to think that the future is unknown and sort of surprising.

Talent is an accident of genes - and a responsibility.

Any actor who judges his character is a fool - for every role you play you've got to absorb that character's motives and justifications.

We should always be aware that what now lies in the past once lay in the future.

Don’t leave me, Em. You’re my salvation.

You need to know the truth to be able to praise God

Due to the injuries that I will have for the rest of my life, it is physically impossible for me to consider any career in wrestling.

I still like weird music but there's such an overabundance that it's hard for me to stay enthusiastic about it.

People need to understand that hip-hop that has gun talk is just for entertainment; similar to if you were watching a movie.

Once it's in you to being a starter, you always want to be that. But you understand the circumstances and you understand what you can and can't do. And that's the reality of it.

I find each project, although it's compartmentalized, informs me in some facet. I wake up everyday wanting to be informed.

It's a great privilege just to be in a film not because you're some packaging that some agent has done with the studio exec: "We need a John Travolta film."

There's no room in my life for feeling sorry for myself.
