“Sexuality is a topic that has huge shifts in -society. Attitudes toward different sexualities change, but the actual sexuality of a human being is something that’s consistent, and it’s consistently interesting, and so people write about it.”

I don’t really know who I am as an actor: the best thing would be to experiment with it for the next 30 years and never really find out.

I don’t really see the point in making a film unless you can think of a good reason to do it.

When you’re doing a film, people are always telling you exactly what to do. Literally, your own decisions are taken away from you.

Jeff Bridges is one of my favorite actors in the history of ever.

I want to take advantage of any popularity I have.

I didn’t have any pets growing up.

I am comfortable playing the fool, I think.

I swim a lot. I swim most days.

I’m not really an animal person.

I actually went to university.

I can’t run. I start getting twinges. If I were filmed running, it would be awful.

I would like to work with whoever would like to have me.

Maybe Oliver Stone doesn’t lend himself well to remakes or sequels, because he does them so well the first time.

We live in a youth-obsessed, aesthetically obsessed culture. That is no more evident than in the film industry.

I had two family members involved in World War I: two great-uncles. One of them is on a memorial in France. And the other was a trench runner who survived the war. The average life span of a trench runner was 36 hours, but he survived the whole war.

I’m probably a little too uninhibited.
