Especially these days where everything is so polite and so proper, I think that rites of passage are good.

I think I've always been half out of my shell and half in. Sometimes I can be extremely wild and sometimes I can be extremely shy. It just depends on the day.

The willingness to keep learning is, I think, the most important thing about trying to be good at anything. You never want to stop learning.

If you give an actor any wiggle room to whine in situations where they want to whine, you're gonna whine.

I feel good. I think everything went good.

On 'Into The Wild' I spent months risking my life and on 'Speed Racer' I spent 60 days acting in front of a green screen. No danger to my physical self, but I sure had to use my imagination.
