If you try to make interesting films, you're going to be disappointed most of the time. I choose just not to look at it that way.

Sometimes we don't see certain things until we're ready to see them in a certain way.

I studied French forever, and when do I ever speak French? I clearly should have studied Spanish. I wish I had stuck with music, because that would still be great. I really wish I had learned to surf earlier in my life.

As an actor, I don't have any politics. As an actor, I'm driven more by an authentic - I would say an obsessive-compulsive-disorder level-fixation on mimicry, tonality of voice, to literally imitate something until I can just disappear into it.

I think it's a total fallacy for people to say, You couldn't make those old movies today. I think there's more ways to get a movie made today than ever in the history of the entertainment industry.

I like to get into a lot of things besides movies. I've been very involved with a few specific efforts. We built this park in New York and it's been a very successful project... I worked on a conservation project in East Africa... Too much of this type of stuff can get you wrapped up in your own work and I love it.
