My career has been full of remarkable coincidences that have nothing to do with me.

The trouble is that, while my parents were great when they were apart, they were terrible together.

Nobody deserves this much money - certainly not an actor.

If I'd been bright, I'd have realized that I was horribly uncomfortable, amazingly frustrated, and like any sensible person, I'd have quit. But it never occurred to me that I wouldn't be successful eventually.

I am at peace with God. My conflict is with Man.

In essence, String Theory describes space and time, matter and energy, gravity and light, indeed all of God's creation... as music.

As for me, it is interesting to play a role that is not human; it is nice to be all powerful without fancy action scenes. But, it is not funny to play God, even on film. You don't speak much and just smile beatifically.

I'm on the list that I thought I'd never be on. I'm not sitting here thinking, 'God, I might get this part' or 'is it too late for me to play Hamlet?' It's really about: who do I get to work with? There's so many people on that list.
