"I'm known as a kind of dramatic, serious, almost humorless actor and the fact is, I'm a funny guy, and I spend most of my life trying to find a lighter side of things, and on stage was given plenty of opportunity to do that."
Funny
"I tend to turn down roles that are too much like me, what I think is most like me anyhow, because I'm me all the time and I'm sick of it."
Time
"I had been to New Mexico many times. I loved it. It's a very exotic, interesting, severely crazy environment. I don't know if I could live there all year. It's such an intense place."
Environment
"Most of us... are simply just trying to get through the day. And wait for those times in their life that are markers, that put things into relief. That's why we like movies and books so much."
Life
"Working hard is great, being lazy sometimes is great, but failed potential is the worst."
Being

Familiarity

People
"The fact is, it's hard to release movies."
Movies

Acting
"The fact is that you're never gonna believe any of the reviews, because the movie is to you what it is to you. No one's ever gonna sway you from what you feel about it."
