Quote

Cats are too independent. They piss me off. They play when they want, and then they turn their back on you. Dogs, you throw the ball, and they bring it back, tongue hanging out, tail wagging. Cats are like Not right now, too busy. Definitely a dog man. Except when it comes to cleaning up after them! Cats win that!

As the filmmaker, yes, I have to look out for everybody. But I don't have to know everybody's approach.

By the way, sitting with other mommies is probably the most frightening experience in the entire world. They're serious into mommy-shaming.

The only reason I'm acting in films I direct is to get the money to make them, quite frankly, it's not what I'm interested in doing.

You don't have to kill somebody to play a murderer. You have to read the script and interpret the character.

[Russel Crowe] has been through a lot and had a lot of success. No one knew who he was when I worked with him 12 years ago. He's just come off a great film in Australia- Romper Stomper - and so it was good to see him again. Obviously, I'd seen him since.

My mother never gave up one me. I messed up in school so much they were sending me home, but my mother sent me right back.

There's always got to be room for what you might call benign corruption. Nobody blames a man who steals food to feed his starving children, but on the other hand, somebody who picks up a badge and takes an oath to serve and protect we do expect a certain level of essential honesty.

I'm not afraid to upset people. But I am not as upset because I understand what I'm up against.

I've been fortunate. I don't pick scripts. Scripts pick me.

Image
I got on my knees and sort of communicated with the spirits. When I came out, I was in charge. I couldn't have acted that, I couldn't have written that.

You don't know when you're being watched. That's one of the weird things about celebrity. It's my least favorite part of acting, celebrity.

Acting is like music and you improvise. It's like jazz, there's no rhyme or reason to it. It's not a plan. You practice to music and you just play it.

If it ain't on a page, it ain't on a stage.

Acting is just a way of making a living, the family is life.

My mother used to tell me man gives the award, God gives the reward. I don't need another plaque.

I work hard for the audience. It's entertainment. I don't need validation.

I just do what I feel and what I like. I don't necessarily censor or feel an obligation to have a particular moral standard - I'm willing to wallow in the mud, if necessary. It appears as if there seems to be a consistency in result, but maybe that has as much to do with the roles I choose as it does with how I play them. I do what pleases me.

I say luck is when an opportunity comes along and you're prepared for it.

My faith helps me understand that circumstances don't dictate my happiness, my inner peace.

My father was a minister for 50 years with Pentecostal Church of God in Christ. We prayed about everything, every day, then he always said, Amen. God is love. I thought God is love was one word. Like Godislove. And it took me a long time to learn what that really meant.
