"My dad's probably one of the kindest people in the world. When I was younger that's not how I was- I was a little spoiled brat."
"I lived in Hollywood and, ironically, I didn't know you could just go out and get an agent and go on auditions and try and become an actor, I thought it was like a Masonic thing, like a blood line you had to belong to – until I was 13. Then I realised what you had to do. It is the one thing I know I want to do for the rest of my life."

"I prefer ordinary girls - you know, college students, waitresses, that sort of thing. Most of the girls I go out with are just good friends. Just because I go out to the cinema with a girl, it doesn't mean we are dating."
"When I was young I used to have this thing where I wanted to see everything I used to think 'How can I die without seeing every inch of this world?'"
"Portraying emotionally ill characters gives me the chance to really act."
"The first kiss I had was the most disgusting thing in my life. The girl injected about a pound of saliva into my mouth, and when I walked away I had to spit it all out."
"You can make history, or you will be vilified by it."
