The more you understand me, the less characters I can play.
The Native American side was tragic. It's just unbelievable what has happened to them.
What's the classical moment that every actor or actress deals with? A tragic thing. They get that blank, faraway look in their eyes. But in life, it's not that way.
Whatever labels are being pinned on me have nothing to do with me.
There's a lot of reasons you can think of to say why you act, but I can only say that it just felt good. At the same time, it felt really painful. It's still troubling and stressful to me.
I think when someone becomes an actor, people say, Aw, you could see it in him when he was little. But I think you can see that quality in every little kid.
I think people could justify labeling me if they saw a pattern in what I do, but right now that's impossible.
Everyone's really lazy in L.A.
I don't use the techniques I learned at NYU much anymore.
I'm not the most talkative guy in the world.
I feel like I want to crawl out of my skin, especially when people start questioning me.
I've just done a movie - Albino Alligator - with Viggo Mortensen, who's an actor I idolize. He influenced me in a way that has helped me move toward getting lead parts instead of supporting parts, merely through his presence. So now I tell everyone, as a joke, that I'm entering my Viggo Mortensen phase.
I didn't even go to my prom. I didn't have one date in high school.
Any time I got in emotional turmoil, I felt sick all the time, like at any minute I would die.
