We all respect sincerity in our friends and acquaintances, but Hollywood is willing to pay for it.

Hollywood doesn't even have respect for itself. Hollywood lies to itself.

I have a lot of respect for my fellow young actors. It takes a lot to push forward after being told no a million times, and that was what we all have to go through. So those who push deserve respect.

I try to live with honor, even if it costs me millions of dollars and takes a long time. It's very unusual in Hollywood. Few people are trustworthy - a handshake means nothing to them. They feel they're required to keep an agreement with you only if you're successful or they need you.

Hollywood is showing respect for all different types of art.

What is the thing that Hollywood demands most? Sincerity. No place in the world will pay such a high price for this admirable trait.

It's a little daunting coming on to work with actors that you respect so much.

When you look at some of the most respected actors there are and the crap that they're in... it didn't used to be that way.

Everyone applauds each other's success in Hollywood because they know how tough it is, but it really comes down fundamentally to the process.

The way Hollywood works, you're never sure if their first thought is to make a great film and honor the material or just another business property.
