You can't win a marathon without putting some bandaids on your nipples!
Studios and networks who ignore either shift — whether the increasing sophistication of storytelling, or the constantly shifting sands of technological advancement — will be left behind,
I mean we all played as kids. You play games, you take on different characters, you imitate; the fun and the love of play has never left me.
For me, coming to work every day has turned out to be exactly what I hoped it would be.
I open myself up every time I walk on screen and give you everything that I am. There are parts of me that are in every movie that I've done. That to me is what my job is.
It's much more interesting when you go to different places - make a left turn when nobody expects you to make a left turn, and make a right when nobody expects you to do that.
I'm aware that, from the outside, this looks like I've got quite an ego.
I've been on sets where things weren't relaxed because someone was creating tension for no reason.
I'm not someone who's led my life trying to get publicity; I'd rather do my work and go home.
My job consists of basically masking my contempt for the assholes in charge, and, at least once a day, retiring to the men's room so I can jerk off while I fantasize about a life that doesn't so closely resemble Hell.

I always thought that, in a way, you want your Superman to be a total unknown.
I like being able to go to a local pub and have great food and particularly love pubs that welcome my dogs.
