thinking tangled people
I do get bottled up in interviews. You're thinking about what you're saying, and suddenly you get all tangled. So people think I'm sullen, or that I don't have much to say. But my friends will tell you: a lot of times I talk too much.
song brother father
The first music I was ever exposed to was Irish folk music, like the Clancy Brothers. My father plays that and Christmas songs.
roles ifs courses
Of course, if you're gonna make movies, you gotta make movies, and I'm not gonna say no to a good role.
driving being-the-best drivers
My driving, I've been accused of not being the best, most safest driver.
jobs mean actors
It's a pretty good job being an actor, but it's work sometimes. And when I say work, I mean it's a job. You're going to a job.
contradiction holes knows
In politics there are so many holes, so many contradictions, you don't know what's happening.
creeps absent absent-minded
I'm not the greatest boyfriend, but I'm not a creep. It's more like I'm... absent-minded.
wall people enemy
I don't hide out. If you build a wall around yourself, it draws people to invade it. Fear is the enemy.
character worry long
I don't worry about whether a character is likable, as long as the character is believable.
giving advice littles
I don't like to give out advice. I make suggestions when I get to know somebody a little bit, but I don't know about advice.
hollywood belief conviction
I don't consider myself a Hollywood liberal, but I have my convictions and my beliefs.
advice actors too-much
Actors don't generally go asking other actors for advice too much, but I'll take suggestions wherever I can.
mean responsibility people
These are people who haven't gone through the legal means to becoming citizens like our forefathers did. They want all the benefits but none of the responsibilities.
pressure actors sensitive
It was being young and sensitive and an actor. There was a lot of pressure, everything was a hurdle.
