 I don't think I could be a foot soldier. I don't know if I could take orders too good. I'm a little lazy. |
| When some people get parts, they feel they can now relax, but for me it was always the opposite. Sometimes before I do a movie or before I act out a scene, I may not sleep well the night before. If I don't know what the scene is about, I might get all worked up. |
| Before I was ever in high school, I had dark circles under my eyes. The rumor was I was a junkie. I have dark circles under my eyes, deal with it. |
| My goal as an actor has always been to reach a level where I can find a lot of interesting work, and I think I'm at that point now. The Oscar has given me a lot of recognition. |
| I trained as a theater actor and you had a bare stage and you had to pretend, one prop and you are in the middle of 8th Ave. and traffic is just going by. |
| There's a lot of Latinos right now, a lot of filmmakers and writers that are Latin too. |
| Hopefully, I can play both sides of the fence. That's probably what winning the Oscar gives me, the chance to do something with a studio and do other things that I really want to do. |
| I've liked most of the films that I've been in and those are the kinds of films I like to see. |
| You have to kill to survive. People have been doing it forever. I eat meat, and I eat fish. If I were on a deserted island I would need that to survive. |
| There are a lot of good actresses out there. |
| To be honest with you, I'd rather not be working. When you work, there are all sorts of deadlines and pressures. I like to do one thing and take my time to do the other one. |
| I'm not Jack Nicholson. I'm not Brando. But I do mumble. |
