“The more time you spend with any character, whether it's from a comic book universe or a really naturalistic universe, the more time you spend, the more that character just becomes another aspect of yourself.”
“I've never been bitten by a shark, though God knows I had to poke a lot of them in the nose.”
“I got into an argument with someone because I said I think 2Pac will be regarded as a great poet. They said he was just a punk gangster. People said the same thing about Francois Villon, and he's now considered the best French Romantic poet of all time.”
“Working with film directors helps me grow, but nothing like the incremental jumps I make onstage.”
“I love poetry - just to read it and be around it.”
“I used to be an open-spear fisherman, and if you're looking for fish, you're never going to see them. In an almost meditative state, you have to pick out anomalies, something out of the ordinary.”
“I'm sure one reason I became an actor is my basic unwillingness to live one life.”
“There really, truly is a code that rodeo men and women have you can't find anywhere else. There really is a code. It's a sense of tribalism.”
“I knew that acting is like anything - you learn from doing it.”
“For me, the first thing that I respond to - whether it's doing a play or movie or television or anything - is just the character. Is this a guy whose shoes I want to walk in for the next 12 days or six months?”
“As human beings, we anthropomorphize way too much. God's not a person. God, for me, is a power that lies outside the definition of time and space.”
“Acting gives you cosmic permission to take a trip in movies that lasts 24 hours a day, seven days a week, until the film is finished.”
“I've been doing martial arts since I was 9.”
“I feel like, in some ways, I couldn't be a luckier actor to have Stick from 'Daredevil' and Senior from 'The Leftovers.' Two really different, incredible parts to do. I'm just lucky.”
“My life is stupidly physical.”
“In terms of working out, I'm in the gym, maximum, twice a week, but for a pretty intense period of time: two or two and a half hours nonstop. Most of the exercises are body weight. We're talking pull-ups, chin-ups, decline rows, elevated push-ups.”
“Carrying law enforcement ID connects you with those who do the same and separates you from those who don't. There's an implicit trust that you will serve even if means risking your life.”
“I don't think rodeo is cruel at all. Bullriding is the only man-animal event that makes sense.”
“'The Leftovers' is my favorite job I've ever had in my life, anywhere, ever. It is one of the greatest TV shows ever made.”
“Rodeo riders are the last of the true chivalrous groups of people. It's a place where the competition is really pure.”
