I want to be a hero, a small and good kind of hero, even though I know heroes have very short lives.

I don't see myself as a hero because what I'm doing is self-interested: I don't want to live in a world where there's no privacy and therefore no room for intellectual exploration and creativity.

I don't want to be a dead hero.

There are a lot of people who can be classified as heroes and do great things and inspire me.

I have lots of heroes: anyone and everyone who does whatever they can to leave the natural world better than they found it.

You have to do bad things in order to become a hero. You have to make sacrifices.

I grew up never seeing myself on-screen, and it's really important to me to give people who look like me a chance to see themselves. I want to see myself as the hero of any story. I want to see myself save the world from the bomb.

I like heroes, and would like to be a hero myself. I suppose we all want that.

It's hard to describe yourself as a hero - I just like to think of myself as a policeman. People can look to you like that, as a good guy who can help people.
