“I like a cheese and pickle. Nice cheese and pickle on a real old-fashioned bread. Ploughman’s lunch.”

I still don’t have a publicist. If I’m in a film, you have an obligation to promote it, I’ll do as much as I can.

The industry has changed. Two years ago I could tell a company I’ve got Russell Crowe and that would get the film made. Now they’d ask ‘And who’s the girl?’ Just one famous face isn’t enough any more.

It’s been said that alcoholics are egomaniacs with low self -esteem. It’s the prefect description. Being larger than life and yet your pride is crushed with self- loathing.

But you see, I have played more good guys than I have played villains.

My big love was the Beatles. I was more into music.

My passion and energy get mistaken for anger.

I applaud anything that can take a kid away from a PlayStation or a Gameboy. That is a miracle in itself.

I never told my father I loved him before he died, and I have a lot of issues about that. They’re all swimming around in my head, in my heart, unresolved, and in a way it felt fitting to dedicate the film to him.

Any actor who tells you that they have become the people they play, unless they’re clearly diagnosed as a schizophrenic, is bullshitting you.

People imagine that actors are being offered everything and you are not. So things come in and sometimes there are things that I want and can’t get a meeting on, or go to a different actors.

To be honest, Im a little tired of playing bad guys. I long to do a comedy. But it was fun knocking Indiana Jones around.

Being a good director is knowing sometimes when not to say something.

I wasn’t ever a huge fan of comics. Just not one of those kids, you know?

We’re given a code to live our lives by. We don’t always follow it, but it’s still there.

You choose your friends by their character and your socks by their color.

I did have a knack for playing weirdos. There’s still sort of this perception of me out there as being this crazy guy.

It is so great that fashion is not a question of price, and it can be more accessible to everyone interested in fashion.

My wardrobe consists of antique clothes, many of my designs, plus shoes and shirts from Brooks Brothers and Paul Stuart.

There are a lot of gay people in fashion, but it’s not as if every gay person is a great creator.

There has been a change in men’s attitudes toward their clothes. Men are more aware of fashion; they’re not afraid of it.

I like to think, hopefully, people agree that I’m fashionable.

In the great glasshouses streaming with condensation, the children in mourning-dress beheld marvels.

Bravery never goes out of fashion.

I’ve always just worn bows. They just got bigger and better and sparklier – and then I became ‘JoJo with the bow bow,’ and it became a thing.
