You have to keep a strong sense of who you really are - and I have a pretty strong sense of myself. It gets me in trouble when I say this, but I don't think of myself as a politician. I've always tried to be honest when communicating with people.

If you try to talk about yourself honestly when you're an actor, you come off as stuck on yourself.

I don't like talking about myself. I'm not really interested in myself. One of the good things about being a supporting actor is that you get to talk about other people.

As an actor, you try to put a little bit of yourself in everything you do.

I'm an actor. I love to act. That's my job. I'll leave the politicking to others.

I'm very happy doing what I'm doing; I don't think I'm prepared to devote my time to politics. When I am, I'd like to give it 100%. I'm not in the frame of mind, and I'm too greedy an actor to do that.

I'm an actor; I have made my living by acting, and I almost think I owe it to the public to express my feelings and not as a character on a screen but as myself.

I'm not a politician; I'm lucky to be a filmmaker and to be able to express myself through the films I make.

Politicians are actors, too, don't you think? Usually, if you like people and you're outgoing, not a shy little thing, you can do pretty well in politics.

I'm an actor who plays an intriguing character, not a political pundit.
