Actors are the best and the worst of people. They're like kids. When they're good, they're very very good. When they're bad they're very very naughty.

I think that short films often contain an originality, a creative freedom, an energy and an invention that is inspiring and entertaining. I think they are, as Shakespeare put it, a good deed in a naughty world.

The best actors, I think, have a childlike quality. They have a sort of an ability to lose themselves. There's still some silliness.

It's very strange that the people you love are often the people you're most cruel to.

I fondly remember good times working on 'Thor.'

Carrying a movie is both a great privilege, it's a great opportunity, but it can be a great pressure, and sometimes that can make people behave very oddly.
