Being joyful is a choice.

I like films, I like movies, I like playing different characters and working with different actors, and filming in different places. I like movies, because it's kind of a combination of every art, it's like it's picture, it's story, it's music, it's kind of like a clash and a collide of every art. It's really neat.

I'd rather live forever in Heaven than a place where there's terrorism and hate.

There's nothing better than actually getting to watch the person and see his or her mannerisms.

I would rather portray the hero, if it's a really great film. All my favorite fictional film characters are heroes, such as in The Last of the Mohicans and Robin Hood.

I walked away from this movie thinking how important it is to have a genuine selfless love for your children. You can really mess kids up if you don't have the right kind of love for them.

That's what rock music is, I think - constantly searching for authenticity, and being as honest as possible.

Often times, if a character is pretty straightforward, he or she is not as interesting to portray.

Silence Of The Lambs is definitely very frightening.
