I'm kind of an obsessive-compulsive person, like, neat obsessive.

I am struggling, though. It’s f-cking hard. So little sleep. It’s 23 hours and 59 minutes of exhaustion. They do one little thing in that last minute that is just so compelling and fascinating that it makes the other 23 hours and 59 minutes worthwhile.
Liev Schreiber

Liev Schreiber
Every girl I've gone out with has said something to me first.
Liev Schreiber
I actually loved Winnipeg. Everyone told me I was going to hate it, but it was great.
Liev Schreiber
I think it’s really, really important to mix it up as an actor, to try to get as much kind of varied experience as you can, not only for your own personal growth as an actor but for the audience to keep them guessing about what you’re going to do.
Liev Schreiber
I'm misrepresented as a scary person. I'm not. It's all about my size and my eyebrows.
Liev Schreiber
I really don't think there is anybody in the business with better eyes than Elijah Wood.
Liev Schreiber
I find that the most interestingly written parts happen to be the bad guys.
Liev Schreiber
As soon as you know what you're doing, you're doing it wrong.
Liev Schreiber
A lot of times in Hollywood you're as good as your last job.
Liev Schreiber
The funny thing is that I write and I act a lot about being Jewish, but I don't really think about it as a regular person.
Liev Schreiber
I'm not that interested in working with impervious people.
