The best thing about acting is that I get to lose myself in another character and actually get paid for it… It’s a great outlet. I’m not really sure who I am-it seems I change...

I like doing things that scare me. I went bungee jumping, but sky diving is just the sickest thing.

Drugs? Every one has a choice and I choose not to do drugs…

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.

Being dubbed as a hunk sort of annoys me. It gives me a yucky feeling.

The role of Rimbaud is one of the most important roles to play for a young actor.

School, I never truly got the knack of. I could never focus on things I didn’t want to learn.

Enough is enough. The truth is our planet’s alarm is now going off and it’s time to wake up and take action.

I’m just starting to scratch the surface of what really makes me happy and it’s taken me a while to admit that acting like a little child and being a jerk and a punk is...

Love at first sight? I absolutely believe in it! You’ve got to keep the faith. Who doesn’t like the idea that you could see someone tomorrow and she could be the love of your life?...

I’d definitely say that when I’m alone with a girl, I’m doing the baby voices, all that stuff, rubbing noses, the whole thing.

My mother is a walking miracle…

Portraying emotionally ill characters gives me the chance to really act.

If I want to go to a party with a few male friends, it doesn’t mean I’m gay.

I remember the ‘Checkered Demon’. He’s this little devil with this three-foot dong that just porks everybody. And that wa s my idea of what sex was about. And I was, “Oh, wow! I can’t...

Growing up in this business and truly wanting to be a part of the world of film, I’m a truly privileged person standing here today. But I must say, the pinnacle, the pinnacle of all...

Dad, I really want to become an actor, but if this is what it’s all about, I don’t want to do it.

When I was doing ‘This Boy’s Life’ I wanted to be as old as Robert DeNiro and as experienced as him and have the same respect as he did in that movie.

I’ve just got to maintain my passion for what I do.

It’s a tough thing-you get in a situation where you feel you have to be perfect all the time and it sucks.

I’ve never been Romeo who meets a girl and falls for her immediately… It’s been a much slower process for me each time I’ve gone into a relationship.

My mother is a walking miracle.

If you can do what you do best and be happy, you’re further along in life than most people.

[Getting chased by fans through the streets of Paris and Tokyo was] frustrating and distracting, … There’s no real control over how the media or the public perceives you. . . . It was a...

When I grew up, I lived in the ghettos of Hollywood; it was the most disgusting place to be. I was known as the crazy little kid. I did impressions. Then I realized that’s not...

I’ve always been spontaneous and outgoing… I’ve tried lots of things so I’ve got some good life experiences, which is great ’cause it means I’ve got lots of material to work with as an actor.

Playing Arnie was fun because everything I did was spontaneous.

When you develop an infatuation for someone you always find a reason to believe that this is exactly the person for you. It doesn’t need to be a good reason. Taking photographs of the night...

Then I saw Keanu Reeves in ‘Much Ado About Nothing’ and I know if he can do it, I can do it too…

The good thing about acting is that it always keeps you on your toes… It’s not like any other job where you can go in and do the same thing as yesterday.

Everywhere I go, somebody is staring at me, I don’t know if people are staring because they recognize me or because they think I’m a weirdo.

Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking.

When a role for a young guy is being offered to me, I think of River Phoenix. It feels like a loss.

Global warming is not only the No. 1 environmental challenge we face today, but one of the most important issues facing all of humanity. We all have to do our part to raise awareness about...

I didn’t worry about what DeNiro thought… I went in, looked him in the eye, and got the part. I was confident, even though I’d never done anything like it before. Now I realise it...

My dad has always been the bohemian…

It gets to the point where you’re hot, you’re hot, and when you’re not, you’re not. It’s so true. I have to slow down soon.

I didn’t know what types of movies I wanted to do. I want to do things that are different. I want to take my time with each role.

I was expecting a little more from ol’ Sharon y’know? I wasn’t about to get down and dirty with her, so it was a bit of a let down. Actually, she hurt my lip.

I don’t think my parents would be shocked about anything I did, because they’re so laid-back.

I rejected it many times because I thought it was just another commercial film. Sharon Stone and everything. But then, with one day to decide, I said, ‘OK’. I like Sam Raimi and this character’s...

It’s my first sort of commercial attempt, but it made sense for me because I’m not that kind of guy and I’m not going to continue to do that kind of movie.

It was closer to manual labor than shooting a film. I always think of something Michael Caton-Jones told me: ‘Pain is temporary. Film is forever.’

I’ve changed. You can’t help it. Your mind starts working in a different way. You feel really scrutinised by people.

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?’

I hate it… I feel that when I see myself and these other cute faces, I’m just part of this meat factory.

This is my first long-term relationship… and I can’t wait to see her at the end of the day. She’s the cutest girl in the world.

I’ve managed to keep a clear head and remain sane in this business because I remain a kid off-camera.

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...

I always feel like I’m on a roller-coaster, but I never want to get off! There’s a certain high you’re always on.
