At one point, they wanted me at the end wounded, and in a wheelchair and crutch like Anthony Hopkins in Legends of the Fall. I said I'm not doing that movie.
The money part is one of the most difficult things. Coppola always said I should do a tango movie. If it hadn't been for him, I don't know where we would have gotten the money.
I love the smell of juice boxes in the morning.
I love working in Texas anywhere.
There's no right or wrong just truthful or untruthful.
Some people say, 'Do you have any theories on acting?' And I say, well maybe: I think you can start with zero and end with zero. You don't have to go anywhere, you don't have to go for the result.
The only thing that might make me stay in bed would be fear. Once I get rest, then I can overcome the fear of a given day and then I'm ready. I'm ready to go. Not that I always have that fear, but sometimes that's the only thing that would keep me in bed more than just the laziness.
The beginning and the end of the tango is the walk.
I would like to ask each of you: Would you be in favor of some kind of education on birth control and if so, how would you use that as a possible solution to the ever present question of abortion.
I'm getting good offers, as good as ever sometimes. I just finished a thing with Billy Bob Thornton that was the most unique part I've ever played in my life, in the most unique project.
What drives me is I love my profession. I love to do it.
My uncle always said that I could have been a rancher.
When you shift the gear and that little needle on the tach goes into the red and reads 9,000 rpm, that's bad.
God does guide the lives of individuals and does fill them with the Holy Ghost.
