I was born a character actor.

I'd like to have a decade of my life back. I dropped into a void for almost a decade.

There's no nobility with war. It's tear-'em-up destruction that leaves you frustrated, bitter and angry... If you really knew what it was like for an hour, you wouldn't want anyone to go through it.

I was doing judo before anybody knew it existed in this country.

That place that no one knows about - horrifying things we keep secret. A lot of that is released through acting.

In order for your dreams to come true, you've got to stay awake.

I was born looking older... and I've been aging since I was a teenager.

Life, a good life, a great life is about "Why not?" May we never forget it.

It's the flaw that brings out the beauty.

Evil is also not anything small or close to home, and not the worst; otherwise one could grow accustomed to it.

I don't think you make fans happy by just replicating frames. What they want to see is that you stayed true to the story, true to the characters and true to the design.

History teaches the young the virtues of freedom. By apprising them of the past it will enable them to judge the future.

My two daughters live on Facebook and social media is their mode of communication.
