I've seen incredible acts of humanity in the military because people put themselves aside, and it's about the other person.

Sophocles was a general: a warrior writing plays about military situations.

Just being in the military, you're so violent. We got into fights about just random things all the time. I don't think as aggressively as I did when I was in the Marine Corps.

Obviously, 'Lincoln' is not about the telegraph operator. There's a whole other movie before and after the two isolated scenes that I'm in.

Acting is really about having the courage to fail in front of people.

The military community in particular, I think, could always be more supported, especially people who are being processed out of the military and trying to readjust to being civilians.
