“I think trying too hard to be sexy is the worst thing in the world a woman can do.”

And being as I’m somebody who loves movies like The Machinist, I also love going along to big mass entertainment movies. I get in the mood for all kinds of movies, and so I like to try each of them.

I feel like I’m pretty good but I don’t like to toot my own horn, you know. I want to let the work speak for itself and kind of move on to the next thing.

Whatever you do, do it completely. Don’t do it half-arsed. Do it more than anybody else would.

The only thing that I’m obsessed with is sleeping, and actually, it is more than an obsession, it is a pleasure.

The only thing I would unequivocally say is that I have never had any interest in romantic comedy I just couldn’t do it. I think I’d be terrible.

I find what I do for a living really funny. I mean, acting is kind of a hilarious thing for a grown man to call a job.

Putting on weight is easy all the way through. But after the first couple of weeks, the novelty wears off very quickly, and your body is groaning and starting to really shout at you, saying, ‘Why? Why? Why? Why are you doing this?’

No, only disappointment in myself on those occasions I didn’t manage to rise to the occasion as I felt I should’ve done. I can always see how to do it, and then the challenge is, Can I manage that each and every day?

I become a bit of a blank page in public. And that’s precisely why I like acting.

We were incredibly fortunate to get to make three Batman films. That’s enough. Let’s not get greedy. It’s a torch that should be handed from one actor to another. So I enjoy looking forward to what somebody else will come up with.

I like being responsible for myself.

I’ll find myself having dinner with people and someone will mention something and I will say I was in that situation once. Then I’ll say, forget it, it was a scene I was in. That can get to be quite confusing.

Well, it’s embarrassing to be a star.

It’s the actors who are prepared to make fools of themselves who are usually the ones who come to mean something to the audience.

I seek the means to fight injustice. To turn fear against those who prey on the fearful.

Being misunderstood is not a bad thing as an actor. I know the truth.

It is wrong to assume that men of immense wealth are always happy.

I think it is a man’s duty to make all the money he can, keep all that he can and give away all that he can.

I think it would be a dream for any actor to play someone like Changampuzha.

The key is not being overconfident. You should not think that because I’m a top-ranked player, I will win this game. You have to be focused.

I still don’t think I’m really a beautiful person, but I know that I can be beautiful inside.

You’re an ocean that I can’t navigate. If storms wrack your surface, I dread to think what horrors lie in your depths.

I don’t think I’m a bad guy from Dagestan. I think I’m a good guy from Dagestan. But for my opponents, for sure, I’m a bad guy because when I go to the cage every time, I smash my opponents.

It’s just weird because like when I was writing Cry Baby I like the only thing that I was thinking about, when writing it, was the concepts and the visuals, and the way that it sounded kind of happened naturally.
