The theater, for me, has always been a place where I'm free to be more creative, a place to sharpen my tools.

My relationship to reality has been so utterly skewed for so long that I don't even notice it any more. It's just my reality.

Everyone has to pay their child support, and no matter if you're a Hollywood actor or anyone else, it's always a little bit more than you want to pay.

The older I get, the more I realize how rare it is to meet a kindred spirit.

'Brooklyn's Finest,' this is the kind of movie that's why I want to be an actor, to tell real-life stories. This is where I feel my job is, to interpret life.

I've had a lot of experience in independent film, and about how to choose. You've got to be very discerning about where you put your five bucks, and where you cut and what you don't cut.
