I think romantic passion is wanting a little something in return.

I always joked with my parents. I told them, 'If I don't make it as an actor, my fallback is musician.'

I think for some reason we're conditioned in movies that the protagonist must be heroic or redeemable in some way, whereas in theater, that's not a necessary.

My family are huge 'Star Wars' fans.

Anything that's made by humans is about humans, whether it's about gods or aliens or anything; it's about some sort of expressive nature about us.

What you wear can be such an indicator of so many things. You know, how you feel, how you want others to perceive you. So, that is an absolutely essential part of building a character.

I have been playing acoustic music for a very long time, and it's something that I am very comfortable doing, so if I made a record, it would probably be a mixture of that and some other things that I'm interested in.

I actually started playing in little cafes around New York, and I have a lot of good friends of mine who are musicians who are struggling in New York.

The motivation is important for me to act it, but I don't necessarily want the audience to know my motivation.

People resent movies that try to tell them exactly what to feel.

Usually when I write a song, I'll write the music and then kind of fit some words to it.

That first play I did in New York, Rogelio Martinez's 'When It's Cocktail Time in Cuba,' I played a young Fidel Castro.

I'm open to the idea of doing more musicals if it's one that I really enjoy.

I think Shakespeare really got it. He was the first one to introduce psychology to villains and give them a real point of view.

J. J. Abrams is amazing.

In a play, you dictate pace, you dictate rhythm, you dictate when people look at you, when people should be looking at something else. In film, the editor does that.

Advice? Look at your pay statements.

The first movie I can remember seeing in the theater was 'Return of the Jedi.' I can remember seeing Darth Vader's helmet come off. The shock of that moment.

In the 1960s, there was a forward way of speaking and inflection.

A change of environment is pretty refreshing.

Rugby is a game that's constant. If you are not growing with it, you get left behind.

The key to success is hard work. You want to feel as comfortable as you can going into the game, and you do that by preparing well.

If you're not striving to improve, you'll end up going backwards.

International rugby is a step up, and this is somewhere you come to get better and improve as a player.

I love playing at Twickenham.

You can never be too skilful.

I only take pleasure in making a break if I've made the correct decision.

It doesn't bother me whether I am or I'm not compared to my dad. I do not feel any pressure at all from being his son.

Being really competitive, you're hard on yourself when you make a mistake, but then you've got to push on.

I enjoy playing. I enjoy training. I enjoy thinking about it, I enjoy talking about it.

You can't be asking people to do things you're not willing to do yourself.

Not everyone plays their best game every week.

I'd say I am a fly half. As regards being 12 for England, I've not tried to play any different. I guess I've been like another 10. Obviously, you do some things differently, and you might not have your hands on the ball as much - but you're still in the game and constantly communicating.

You don't really get fly-halves battering each other.

You cannot focus on things that are so far in the future when you've got things that you can't take your eye off now.

First and foremost, I just have to be myself.

I get treated like everyone else, and that's the way it should be.

I'm pleased to have been able to contribute to some good team performances.

I've always had a rugby ball in my hand, so it was inevitable I was going to play.

I do a lot of kicking practice and passing, and it has made a massive difference.

The start of the game is a bit of a tone-setter for what's to come, but that's not always the case.

I guess I've never really wanted to be anything else. I've never even thought about having another job.

People can say what they want. It is the people inside the camp who count to me. The people around me.

I'm well aware of the rules, and I don't want to play to the edge of them.

I don't think anybody goes onto the pitch and wants to go backwards.

Obviously every team is different, and you don't want to try and be them.

When I was a bit younger, I made too much of trying to stick up for myself. But I don't need to prove that I'm not soft or too young any more.

Anyone can be beaten. I don't think any team is unbeatable.

The main thing is I've tried to get better at everything - that includes the attacking side, being a threat, and taking people on.

There is a difference going onto the pitch with No. 10 on your back rather than No. 12, and you need to have a clear understanding and be unbelievably prepared for what you are going into and what you will face.
