I was a science fiction junkie for a long time.

Defeating fear is not a light switch. For most of us, it's daily work.

I am not a famous person at home - I'm just a guy here. I'm a father, I'm a companion, I'm a human being. I am not a public figure in my house; I am not a celebrity. I am not a famous person to myself - I am just a guy.

It just seems like that because I do a lot of independent films that don't get to the mainstream.

The thing is, I don't believe in most of what's done. The amount of financial and imaginative energy that's put into mediocrity is just amazing which I find to be fundamentally offensive as a human being.

I don't want my children to have to wade through the crap to get to the cream, you know. I want them to be aware that I struggled to live with and tell my truth, and that it was a decent thing.

I've been delighted by Cannes and Toronto but I keep saying I don't know how good we're going to be received in America because that's where it's most challenging.

If you're lucky, and not a lot of actors are these days, you get the chance to create a character.

David Cronenberg knows what we actors do as artists.
