When I do work, I feel the same sort of urgency as I ever did. If I didn't feel that, I don't think I would wish to be doing it. I wouldn't really see the point.
From Daniel Day-Lewis
When I was younger, I made some decisions that I shouldn't have. And, in hindsight, I've almost always been wrong when I haven't listened to myself.
I like to cook things very slowly.
Being at the centre of a film is a burden one takes on with innocence the first time. Thereafter, you take it on with trepidation.
I'm a warrior when it comes to pursuing roles.
If people take an interest in you and they think there's half a chance, they might hang on. It's dreadful.
You can never fully put your finger on the reason why you're suddenly, inexplicably compelled to explore one life as opposed to another.
There must've been some part of me that wanted to make my mark. But there was never a defining moment.
I would wish for any one of my colleagues to have the experience of working with Martin Scorsese once in their lifetime.
At a certain age it just became apparent to me that this was probably the work that I would have to do.
