I think what makes us human - is our interconnectedness among people. It's our ability to form and maintain relationships. It's the barometer by which we call ourselves human.

Harrison Ford - one of my favorite actors - has a wonderful sense of character and depth and uniqueness to him, yet he's able to just deliver the lines without putting any English on it.

I can't stand to see myself act. It just makes me cringe.

I just have a respect for my audience. That seems to be pretty logical.

I'm interested in the impact my movies have on people and how it affects them, and what they like and what they don't like - and what they take away from it. What leaves an impression, you know?

I still collect comics. I still have a great love and respect for the genre.

I want to make movies that I want to see, and what I miss and I'm not seeing.

I'm a really huge fan of the old romantic comedies from the '30s and '40s... Huge fan. I love all that stuff.

I'm interested in people that don't always do the right thing, its much more akin to what I know about life.

Earlier on in my career I felt that I had to hide behind a lot of different masks, and showboat ways of performing. Now, that's a lie. The less I have to hide, the less I have to act.

People lose people, we lose things in our life as we're constantly growing and changing. That's what life is is change, and a lot of that is loss. It's what you gain from that loss that makes life.

I spent a lot of years just learning my craft and falling down in front of the camera.

To stand there and do nothing on film is probably the hardest thing to do.

Some of the supporting roles that I've done as an actor, I took them because I knew that I would get to watch some of the leading guys in the movies, and also I'd get to work with them.

My dad was an entrepreneurial businessman, and maybe I got some of his ability.
