I just feel passionately about the horses and I will until it's no longer a tradition in New York.
As far as I'm concerned, I don't eat meat.
Clarity keeps you from boredom.
I work in a strange business, and trust is a word that's not even in the vocabulary.
I love to be nervous before a scene.
Watching myself still makes me uneasy - and when you're younger, you're even more unforgiving.
I'm very thankful that I've had such longevity and variety.
I have to make a living, and I have been in a few films I wish I hadn't been in, but I don't know where things will lead me next, and that's exciting.
I can't be enticed by a big commercial film.
I've been to fights, and I've seen them on television, but no, I would not call myself a fan of the sport, that particular sport, no.
With every project I've ever done, I've always treated it like I'm still in school. Each time you try to go a little further, get a little deeper, feel a little more, sculpt it a little better.
