On AC/DC's Angus Young:
"Look at how little is Angus. He came into the room, and I fell to my knees. I almost cried. He was probably like, 'Who the fuck is this guy?' "
On Al Pacino:
"I find him so physically attractive. Oh, my God, yes."
On Brad Pitt:
"I saw him once on the red carpet and I was like, wow."
On Johnny Depp:
"What face!"
On how he chooses roles:
"Meryl Streep once said—and if she didn't say it, I read that she said it and I loved it, so I feel she said it—'A career is based on the times you say no rather than the times you say yes.' "
On working with guns on No Country for Old Men:
"They called me 'the Spanish Ballerina' on set because they would be like, 'Cut!' and I'd be like, 'Eek!' Get that thing away from me!' "
On wife Penelope Cruz:
"She had a life [in Los Angeles], which I always found very courageous. She left her kingdom and took the hard way...What we have is the most important thing: a past. We knew each other back at the very beginning of it all, and that is important because when we saw each other again, I saw her and she saw me."
On filming To The Wonder:
"That was an experience. It's one of the reasons why I'm an actor. Because it takes me out of what you call 'the comfort place.' "
On working to not be affected so deeply by his acting experiences:
"I don't hurt myself anymore... Everybody should do therapy. We are full of things we cannot answer for ourselves. Some of them will be answered, some not. But the health is in asking questions."
