My experience with Sondheim has been nothing but glorious, especially for a guy who doesn't sing.

If anybody is getting their ass handed to them, it's not Al [Pachino]. It's coming [toward you]. I'm psychotic.

An actor shouldn't have to leave the set and go home and write a bunch of stuff for a bunch of other people, the next day. I found it very unpleasant.

Once you get on the ship, everything is fine. Once you get on land, everything is not so fine.

My self-image it still isn't that alright. No matter how famous I am, no matter how many people go to see my movies, I still have the idea that I'm that pale no-hoper that I used to be. A pale no-hoper that happens to be a little lucky now. Tomorrow it'll be all over, then I'll have to go back to selling pens again.

You can go out and try to do the best work that you can do within the context of what that is, but it's really gotta be about the work and what you're focusing on.

It's amazing when you get to a certain age, and you talk about sleep in the same way you spoke about getting inebriated... I got eight hours last night. It was fantastic!

I'd rather fight a buzzsaw than dance.

I condition myself to believe that once the scene is done, once the movie is done, my job is done, and whatever happens after that is none of my business.

I always felt that if you're not trying something different each time out of the gate, you're being safe, and you don't ever want to find that place of safety. I like that, each time, before I even go in front of the cameras, the studio's reaction will be fear.

The only gossip I'm interested in is things from the Weekly World News - 'Woman's bra bursts, 11 injured'. That kind of thing.

People say I make strange choices, but they're not strange for me. My sickness is that I'm fascinated by human behavior, by what's underneath the surface, by the worlds inside people.

If it's called a selfie, why are there people in it?

I'm not even born yet. I'm still trying. I'm still pushing. I don't ever want to get to a place where I feel satisfied.

Anything I've done up till May 27th 1999 was kind of an illusion, existing without living. My daughter, the birth of my daughter, gave me life.

Every time I stand in front of mirror, I found my face too ugly, so I thought I have to get the role in some movies which cover my face with make up.
