I do come shackled with whatever people think I am.

Well, I'm a consumer as well. I go to the movies with my popcorn and believe everything I see.

In a collaborative environment directors hire actors because they want their input, not just their bodies.

I just think we're living in a time of massive, amazing change, like the Industrial Revolution on acid.

I can't wait til I get the chance to be a character and how my face looks isn't the first consideration.

The least consideration of any film I've ever worked on is who is right for it.

You know, I change my hair color a lot, I do all sorts of different things.

Cause I won't repeat myself, the way I dress and look.

My idols are all older.

That's where I got my start and where I'll continue to work, but I can't tell you the number of films between Drugstore Cowboy and Curly Sue that I auditioned for and wanted that didn't choose me.

All I really want to do is entertain people out there sitting in the dark and for them to believe it.

It's all talk til it's all real walk.

Of whom the world was not worthy.

The trouble is it's very difficult to pin-point the most important thing because Aids affects everyone in different levels of society, differently and you have to respond to it differently.

We hear only those questions for which we are in a position to find answers.

A woman is a lot like a refrigerator. Six feet tall, 300 pounds...it makes ice.

The chief requirement of the good life, is to live without any image of oneself.

I'm always aiming for some magic in films if I can find a mystical quality either in a song or in a moment or a character's intention.

The massive reduction in risk that is inherent in the development of the modern corporation has been far from fully appreciated.

Certainly the animation technology is growing like crazy. All media technology is.

The mercy of the world is time. Time does not stop for love, but it does not stop for death and grief, either.
