Man is a little bit better than his reputation, and a little bit worse

Opinions I have about anything are in my personal life.

I learned to wrestle, I learned defensive fighting at a young age, because when someone hit me, I would throw up and fall down.

I'm constantly striving to break through to something new. You try to maintain a neutral approach to your work, and not be too hard on yourself.

Playing a character is an illusion, and I feel that when you know too much about a person, possibly part of that illusion is disrupted.

The difference between the actor and the painter is that the actor would buy somebody a knish in order to have them watch him act.

The thing that can get you a little upset is when people say other people are better than you. That can bug you.

I don't talk politics and I don't talk philosophy or anything like that, but if you look at my work, you might get an expression of me as a person.

Vanity is my favourite sin.

I found out how temperamental I am, yes. And that sometimes that can be kind of off-putting.

You never open your mouth until you know what the shot is.

I'm an actor, not a star. Stars are people who live in Hollywood and have heart-shaped swimming pools.

There are a couple of times I would've liked to have married. I think I made a mistake, especially once.

I'm so shy now I wear sunglasses everywhere I go.

We live in a world where the more you're working, the more things you do. It's a workaday world.

Sometimes you're fighting corporations and forget that people can talk to each other.

A kiss is a lusty dollop of dessert to be served with desire and savored with passion.

Sometimes what we imagine and the world aren't different things. Sometimes they are the same exact thing.

Actually, the person I related to was James Dean. I grew up with the Dean thing. Rebel Without A Cause had a very powerful effect on me.
