I think the driving thing was curiosity about the universe. That fascinated me. I didn't think anything about being famous or anything like that I was just interested in the concepts involved.

I was never very interested in boys - and there were plenty of them - vying with one another to see how many famous women they would get into the hay.

Because I didn't have brothers I was always interested in the kids down the street that had four brothers in their family so I became one of them - but it was not my family.

I have one friend that I've had since I was born and she's from Coatzacoalcos. She's not really impressed or interested in the actor's life. My family isn't really either.

Because I didn't have brothers I was always interested in the kids down the street that had four brothers in their family so I became one of them - but it was not my family. I've always been attracted to temporary families. They tend to be lost characters.

The person interested in success has to learn to view failure as a healthy inevitable part of the process of getting to the top.

Why should anybody be interested in some old man who was a failure?

I think generally I'm kind of interested in subjective experience what goes on inside someone's head that being all they really know of the world.

Some of us are interested in directors but really the vast majority of us are interested in actors. You experience the films through the actors so they're all locked into your imagination in some kind of layer of fantasy or hatred or wherever they settle into your imagination.

In high school I was on the youth advisory council for the Mayor's Office of Los Angeles and that was kind of my first experience in the bureaucratic system. We tried to get things done and nobody was really interested in getting anything done.

I sought my father in the world of the black musician because it contained wisdom experience sadness and loneliness. I was not ever interested in the music of boys. From my youngest years I was interested in the music of men.

But as environment minister I am very interested in a thriving German automobile industry because I can only pay for the rising costs of environmental protection at home and abroad if there are people in Germany with jobs and who pay taxes.

I grew up in an non-athletic family where my parents were interested in music in literature in education and art.

Of all the public services education is the one I'm most interested in. You get a more dynamic economy you deal with most social problems and it's morally right.

But I have been interested in dreams really since I was a kid. I have always been fascinated by the idea that your mind when you are asleep can create a world in a dream and you are perceiving it as though it really existed.

I've been interested in dreams since I as a kid and I've wanted to do a film about them for a long time.

I've never been bashful to say that I'm not really interested in Formula One. When I lived in England it's all I wanted to do and I thought that anything else would somehow be a compromise to my dreams. But then when I came back to the States I realised how much I loved being back in the States.

Acting isn't for me. I don't like being told what to do. I'm more interested in set design more visually driven.

It was something I was more interested in myself. When I went to see my sister dance at ballet I was really into costumes and the arts and my family was also supportive of whatever me and my sister wanted to do. I would say I pushed myself the most to be into design.

So I'm always around video games but I've always been interested in them from a visual perspective with the graphic design and that whole thing. I don't know if that comes from my love of photography or what but that's always what's held my interest about them.

I was very interested in theatre mostly in stage design. I did a little bit of acting.

If death is in the room it's pretty interesting. But I would also say that I'm interested in getting myself to believe that it's going to happen to me. I'm interested in it because if you're not you're nuts. It's really de facto what we're here to find out about.

It's weird to have people so interested in your personal life. It's a part of the business that grosses me out. I'm always bummed out for people who just happen to be dating a celebrity and they're also famous and they can't live their life.

I'm not interested in dating. I like being with my own best friend me. Certain women particularly older women cannot believe I like going to a social event by myself. But I do.

I'm much more interested in what an actor has to say about something substantial and important than who they're dating or what clothes they're wearing or some other asinine insignificant aspect of their life.

I don't understand the whole dating thing. I know right off the bat if I'm interested in someone and I don't want them to waste their money on me and take me out to eat if I know I'm not interested in that person.

My dad has always been extremely supportive in every decision I've made and much more interested in me picking what I wanted to do.

My dad took me to all the best rock and punk shows when I was growing up and music has always been a part of my life. So I'm very interested in the music scene and I suppose that's why I've ended up going out with musicians. Dave Pirner is still one of my best friends.

My kids are not that interested in my movie career by the way. My son in particular never talks about it. He just wants me as his dad.
