All the roles I play, I don't see any of my roles in films that they're typically leading men.
Steve Buscemi
I guess I don't think about age too much. I've always felt older than I really am anyway. I'm not dreading getting older. I don't miss the anxiety of being younger and not knowing what you want or where you’re going.

Steve Buscemi
I'm terrible at story and structure, but I'm not so bad at writing dialogue.

Steve Buscemi
Do you think god stays in heaven because he too lives in fear of what he's created here on earth?
Steve Buscemi
It doesn't matter what part I play, I try and commit myself 100 percent.
Steve Buscemi
I usually get freaked out if I'm in a situation where a lot of people recognise me at once.
Steve Buscemi
I always find that it's when a script is not detailed, then I have to do more work as an actor.
Steve Buscemi
I was going to buy a van and move to LA so I could secretly pursue acting without any of my friends knowing.
Steve Buscemi
I didn't think I'd ever be able to do movies. That was for serious actors.
Steve Buscemi
I like telling stories about people with problems. I can't really put it much simpler than that.
Steve Buscemi
I did stand-up. I loved George Carlin and Steve Martin.
Steve Buscemi
I feel my life has more meaning because I am responsible for another life, although I don't have control over what Lucian - my son - is going to do. He's definitely going to carve his own way.
