One of my great regrets, and I don't have many, is that I spent too long putting people's status and reputation ahead of their more important qualities. I learned far too late in life that a long list of letters after someone's name is no guarantee of compassion, kindness, humour, all the far more relevant stuff.

To be serious, the things you really want to relive are things like bedtime with your daughter when she becomes incredibly entertaining 'cause she doesn't want to go to sleep.

I don't do plays without jokes anymore. I've retired from those plays. I think it's bad manners to invite people to sit in the dark for two and a half hours and not tell them the joke.

Image
I love imaginative representations of a possible near-future, where you look at the technology and you think, Well, yeah, that could really nearly be true. I like those kinds of backgrounds.

When a movie is called 'searingly honest,' it's almost invariably grim and demonstrates how bad things can get.

I guess part of the hit-man appeal is the solitude. Everybody is lured to the idea of the solitary life.

Hunger is almost like something the West does. It's almost like the direct result of the way the West performs.

One of the reasons I like a suit is because I've never been that keen on my body. The shape a suit presents is always going to be better than anything I can do.

I have nothing against romanticism. I'm all for it. I'm helpless in the face of romance.

When people warned me there would be long periods out of work if I became an actor, I couldn't keep a straight face because that was exactly what I had in mind.

The phenomenon of vampires has always appealed to me. Everyone kind of likes a vampire story because it almost could be true.
