“ Books … they’re kind of a compulsion for me. To find a great bookstore is a great thing. ”
There is no pleasure that I haven't made myself sick on.
~ Philip Seymour Hoffman
I think part of why I have so many books around me and why I read every day is because I mythologize the writer. I don’t do that with any other artists.
Sometimes being an actor is like being some kind of detective where you're on the search for a secret that will unlock the character.
I have so much empathy for these young actors that are 19 and all of a sudden they're beautiful and famous and rich. I'm like, 'Oh my God, I'd be dead.'
