Sean Penn
If there's anything disgusting about the movie business, it's the whoredom of my peers.
Sean Penn
There's the old notion that where there's choice, there's chaos, and where there's no choice, there's clarity. If you've got no choice, you've gotta be there, and you've gotta have your heart in it. It leads to a much less self-conscious life.
Sean Penn
You try to do your best at what you're getting paid for.
