Personal quotes

"The best thing about acting is that I get to lose myself in another character and actually get paid for it. It's a great outlet. As for myself, I'm not sure who I am. It seems that I change every day."

"People want you to be a crazy, out-of-control teen brat. They want you miserable, just like them. They don't want heroes; what they want is to see you fall."

He's a perfectionist, obsessed with detail. That's why he went over budget and over schedule - Leonardo DiCaprio on working with Martin Scorsese on "Gangs of New York."
