who-i-am needs funny-travel
I get a friend to travel with me... I need somebody to bring me back to who I am. It's hard to be alone.
climate transition doe
Climate change is severely impacting the health of our planet and all of its inhabitants, and we must transition to a clean energy economy that does not rely on fossil fuels.
funny school hands
I got attention by being funny at school, pretending to be retarded, and jumping around with a deformed hand.
moving people administration
We must all move shoulder to shoulder in a unified front to show this administration that the true majority of people are willing to vote for a cleaner environment and won't back down.
dream preparation trying
I'm not a big dreamer. I never have been. I remember fragments of my dream, and I try to take a traditional sort of approach to researching this project and doing preparation for it.
careers actors able
I always wanted to be an actor and I'd never dreamt that not only would I be able to do this for a living, but also on top of that I'd be able to choose and steer the course of my own career.
character fundamentals matter
The truth of the matter is this - I never look for films specifically, because ultimately if the fundamentals of the character and the script and the director aren't there, it makes it a moot point.
character kids leather-jackets
I couldn't deal with playing a character who rides motorcycles and has a leather jacket and is a tough kid, y'know?
umpires careers want
My career should adapt to me. Fame is like a VIP pass wherever you want to go.
giving who-you-know vices
It was invaluable to have a dear friend who you have known for over a decade, be a partner in a film like Titanic. To have somebody that talented to work against, who's also your friend and who you know you have the best intentions for and vice versa, and who you intrinsically trust to give you their forthright honest opinion about what we're both doing - all that's something you can't really buy.
judging critics
Doing what we do [filming], you have to be your own critic and judge and adjudicate as to what you do and how it turned out.
acting want spontaneity
Acting is the only time when I truly maintain the spontaneity that I want to be present at all times.
hot slow-down
It gets to the point where you're hot, you're hot, and when you're not, you're not. It's so true. I have to slow down soon.
loss thinking phoenix
When a role for a young guy is being offered to me, I think of River Phoenix. It feels like a loss.
