The movie industry is full of crazy people who think that they are gods.

I know that some actors and directors like to have intensity on set. I don't, particularly. Certainly, if they want that, that's fine, but I can't work like that.

I have no interest in Shakespeare and all that British nonsense... I just wanted to get famous and all the rest is hogwash.

I don't want to be anything else other than what I am. I can say that with passion. No regrets.

People forget that Mozart wrote for commissions. There's a thing in psychology where they think if it's popular, it can't be serious.

I was bullied as a boy - lots of kids are, but hopefully most of us get on with our lives and grow up.

I think doubt is a very healthy way to live.

I'm very much a loner. I don't like long relationships with people and I always keep people at a distance.

I worked with Steven Spielberg on Amistad... he seemed so very secure in himself that he let me do things.

I worked with Lawrence Olivier some years ago. He was a great mentor.

I am not very good with relationships. With anyone. I can't be locked up with anyone for too long.

Multiply it by infinity and take it to the depths of forever, and you will still have barely a glimpse of what I'm talking about.

I've got a great sense of humor.

I'd like to wake up and look like Brad Pitt in the morning, but I don't. I look in the mirror, and I see myself.

My philosophy is: It's none of my business what people say of me and think of me.

I would like to go back to Wales. I'm obsessed with my childhood and at least three times a week dream I am back there.

I'm more and more convinced that life is a dream. What has happened to me is surely a dream.

Danger is the spice of life and you’ve got to take a risk now and then…that’s what makes life worthwhile.

We all dream. We dream vividly, depending on our nature. Our existence is beyond our explanation, whether we believe in God or we have religion or we're atheist.
