Some suggestions for you :

Not only do I have to live, right, I have to get some cash for my troubles - it's a scary thing, and people need to start to think about the messages that they send in the movies.

It's what I learn from the great actors that I work with. Stillness. That's all and that's the hardest thing.

Learning how to be still, to really be still and let life happen - that stillness becomes a radiance.

I've been living with myself all of my life, so I know all of me. So when I watch me, all I see is me. It's boring.

I find it difficult to watch myself... I find it boring.

I like the blues a lot. I grew up on it.

And some places you been before are so great that you don't ever mind going back. Some places you been before you don't ever want to go back, you know, like Montreal in the Winter.

Is there a movie I think I should have won the Oscar for? Yeah. All of them.

But I can say that life is good to me. Has been and is good. So I think my task is to be good to it. So how do you be good to life? You live it.

Man is immortal, not because he alone among creatures has an inexhaustible voice, but because he has a soul, a spirit capable of compassion and sacrifice and endurance.

Martin Luther King Jr. is remembered as our prince of peace, of civil rights. We owe him something major that will keep his memory alive.

And finding the hat, I always like to find the hat. And then props just dress the set. It's all fabulous.

Life doesn't offer you promises whatsoever so it's very easy to become, 'Whatever happened to... ?' It's great to be wanted. I spent a few years not being wanted and this is better.

Once you've gotten the job, there's nothing to it. If you're an actor, you're an actor. Doing it is not the hard part. The hard part is getting to do it.
