 Don't think for a moment that I'm really like any of the characters I've played. I'm not. That's why it's called 'acting'. |
| The role of Rimbaud is one of the most important roles to play for a young actor. |
| With Romeo and Juliet, you're talking about two people who meet one night, and get married the same night. I believe in love at first sight-but it hasn't happened to me yet. |
| I prefer ordinary girls - you know, college students, waitresses, that sort of thing. Most of the girls I go out with are just good friends. Just because I go out to the cinema with a girl, it doesn't mean we are dating. |
| Portraying emotionally ill characters gives me the chance to really act. |
| To believe in love, to be ready to give up anything for it, to be willing to risk your life for it, is the ultimate tragedy. |
| I got attention by being funny at school, pretending to be retarded, and jumping around with a deformed hand. |
| I like to be able to play a character and act out a lot of things which I can't or don't do in my normal everyday life. |
| I was always the kid in school who tried to get attention, not necessarily the class clown, but I'd do little unexpected performances. |
| Being dubbed as a hunk sort of annoys me. It gives me a yucky feeling. |
| It's easy to fall into the trap of believing all the hype that's written about you... Who knows? In a couple of years, you might find me in the loony bin! |
| The first kiss I had was the most disgusting thing in my life. The girl injected about a pound of saliva into my mouth, and when I walked away I had to spit it all out. |
| I'm probably not going to get married unless I live with somebody for 10 or 20 years. But these people (Romeo and Juliet) took a chance and they did it. We don't have the balls that Romeo did. |
| I'm not the kind of person who tries to be cool or trendy, I'm definitely an individual. |
| Meryl Streep does things I would never have thought possible... Her presence on screen is outstanding. |
| I couldn't deal with playing a character who rides motorcycles and has a leather jacket and is a tough kid, y'know? |
| The good thing about acting is that it always keeps you on your toes... It's not like any other job where you can go in and do the same thing as yesterday. |
| I've managed to keep a clear head and remain sane in this business because I remain a kid off-camera. |
| I want to be a jerk like the rest of my friends, and have fun, and not care about the consequences, but I just can't now. |
| Drugs? Every one has a choice and I choose not to do drugs. |
