"I'm trying in all my stories to get the feeling of the actual life across-not to just depict life-or criticize it-but to actually make it alive. So that when you have read something by me you actually experience the thing. You can't do this without putting in the bad and the ugly as well as what is beautiful. Because if it is all beautiful you can't believe in it. Things aren't that way."

"For poetry was all written before time was, and whenever we are so finely organized that we can penetrate into that region where the air is music, we hear those primal warblings and attempt to write them down, but we lose ever and anon a word or a verse and substitute something of our own, and thus miswrite the poem. The men of more delicate ear write down these cadences more faithfully, and these transcripts, though imperfect, become the songs of the nations."

"Sticking with a marriage. That's true grit, man."
Marriage
"I've had really great experiences working with first-time directors. They come at filmmaking with fresh ideas. I've been very lucky that way."
Ideas
"As far as the lack of hits goes, I think perhaps it's because I've played a lot of different roles and have not created a persona that the public can latch on to. I have played everything from psychopathic killers to romantic leading men, and in picking such diverse roles I have avoided typecasting."
Men
"This idea of how everything is interconnected, and the impermanence of things. It sums up the human condition to me, and it helps me on my path."
Idea
"What are the aspects of yourself that line up with the character? You magnify those, and the ones that don't match up you kind of kick to the curb."
Character
"A large part of acting is just pretending. You get to work with these other great make-believers, all making believe as hard as they can."
Work
"My m.o. as far as choosing projects is I really try not to work. I try to not do the scripts that are offered me. I'm in this wonderful position to be able to do that. The reason I do that is because I know what it takes once I engage, what that means for me personally and for my wife."
