What kind of America do people want to leave for their children? What horrors are down the road, stuff that was unthinkable 30 years ago?
Neither apology nor kindness can demolish the wall of hatred when built, by choice, on a base of self-centeredness & from the bricks of ego!
Ford, as I understand it, had done away with the concept of regional management, and now they've re-introduced that in Europe, so it's kind of a two-way street.
I've been to a lot of places and done a lot of things, but writing was always first. It's a kind of pain I can't do without.
I've been sort of coasting on 'Peep Show.' So now it's kind of, 'When I grow up, I'm going to have to be an actor if I'm not careful.'

How did I end up in films with people like Keira Knightley... all these beautiful leading ladies and me - it's kind of shocking.
I don't think I'm kind of universally known. I think in the indie world I'm probably better known than in some mainstream Hollywood terms.
I always find it easier to portray myself as being unlikeable and idiotic; to actually play a character that is likeable and engages the audience is far more difficult. It's a more subtle kind of challenge.
