backtoblack picked I think we would all benefit if we walked around in the world a little bit more..:
“I think any time you let the audience dictate your story,then you are in big trouble.”

"I’ve never really done a complete nude scene. Looking forward to that, actually, considering that I like to get naked all the time. That should be pretty easy."

"I'm a liar and a cheat and a thief and the ultimate manipulator. You can never believe a f*ing word that comes out of my mouth. I tell lies everyday, man. And when I say I'm phenomenally manipulative, I am."

"The John Wayne idea was what a man wanted to be--not what a man is. I'd rather watch a person be full of intense emotions and fighting [against] expressing them."

“I always had the sense that my time would come when I was playing men.These are not young men I’m playing, they are not soft and ill-prepared men.They are men.

"I have a hard time not being good at things, and I don't think that's necessarily a very good thing.
I can't do anything just because I love it. I can only do it because I want to be good at it.
It makes for a pretty dissatisfied life in a lot of ways because
you're constantly always falling short of your own expectations. But it also drives you."

"I'm a huge music fan...I spend a lot of time listening to music, which is really important to me."

“To go to Moscow to promote a movie and have people holding up signs that say ‘Foxy' on them is still the most surreal thing for me."

"It’s really important to me to be a part of something that is good and has valid reasons for being made.
And then the role that I’m asked to play is more the secondary issue."

“I think we would all benefit if we walked around in the world a little bit more conscious of the fact that we define our own reality, and that my reality is not the only one.”

"I felt that both on-screen and off,being No. 1 on the daily call sheet and having the most amount of work to do, there's a responsibility that goes along with it. We had a lot of production issues to iron out this year, so we were running into obstacles quite frequently, just getting a big beast of a show running as efficiently as we possibly can.
"Along with that comes a lot of frustration on people's parts at times. The cast, across the board, has been wonderful the whole year, but certainly there have been allegiances and things that have built up among the cast. It's almost my responsibility, in the position I'm in, to make a conscious decision to be there for anybody that has problems or wants to hang out."


“Opposing viewpoints all boil down to perspective. Understanding this has made me better at dealing with them. It’s amazing how many people walk around in this world thinking their way is the right way and the only way. That’s pretty dangerous and pretty unforgivable.”

Curiosity is an incredible part of having a fulfilling and satisfying life. I feel sad for people who have lost their curiosity. I recently met Susan Sarandon and William Hurt, both of whom I admire. I was stunned about how curious they are about people and life in general.”

I always feel a responsibility to give everything I can and really pour myself into the work that I’m doing on a fictional character. But I think it does take a little bit more—it heightens that responsibility when you care so deeply about the man who’s story you’re telling .


“Live for your own passion, not the aspirations or expectations others have for you. Trade fear for trust. Allow yourself to find that area either of your excellence or your excitement that motivates you to apply the same focus and energy that got you through Columbia. Whatever that area is, there is value in it simply because it is the area of your passion.
(Columbia speech, May 2007)
