Being joyful is a choice.
Gratitude is the root of joy.
I walked away from this movie thinking how important it is to have a genuine selfless love for your children. You can really mess kids up if you don't have the right kind of love for them.
That's what rock music is, I think - constantly searching for authenticity, and being as honest as possible.
I think acting is a gift. I look at someone like Ben Kingsley, and hes incredibly charismatic, even when hes not acting. Hes an incredibly hard worker, and he has a very specific system that he does with his work.
Silence Of The Lambs is definitely very frightening.
God puts certain things in certain people. I'm a restless soul. I'm always searching. I'm always pressing to find what truth is and what life is all about.
My family took a vacation to Universal Studios when I was really young. Me and my brother Richard - who's also an actor - were both really intrigued by seeing the behind-the-scenes stuff of how films are made. We kind of begged our parents to get into acting.
When it comes to chemistry with actors, I always feel chemistry is not something that comes and goes. You either have it or you don't.
