- [1997 interview] I've been an actor for 25 years, so there's certainly a bag of tricks that each of us have. It's just what I do for a living. It depends on the character I'm playing at the time. I try to live up to the way I was trained as an actor. I figure I owe the audience a good performance.
- I have a family to raise and a son to educate, so I do work for the work and the money. But that doesn't mean I do everything offered to me. If I see a character I like, I do it. It's what I do, it's what I am. Each thing you do just keeps your instrument tuned. Work is good for your soul and I would say I'm a pretty soulful guy.
- My career has always been a runaway kind of baffling thing. I've never been a big science fiction and fantasy fan, but I get picked for those kinds of roles. I don't think there's any great cosmic reason for the way my career has gone. I've just been in the right place at the right time when these films have come along.
- Look, it's only acting and it's only a movie. I hope that people think my work is good and that they see me as somebody who's a professional at what he does. But hey! The bottom line is that I'm doing blue collar work for white collar money.
