  1. A star on a movie set is like a time bomb. That bomb has got to be defused so people can approach it without fear.

    Acting is everybody's favorite second job.

    Age is the first limitation on roles that I've ever had to encounter, and I hit that awhile ago.

    Early on, if I was alone two three nights in a row, I'd start writing poems about suicide.

    Financially, I've lost money and made money, but I know my way around financially.

    I don't have any plugs or tucks but people do what they want. I look at it as mutilation.

    I don't want people to know what I'm actually like. It's not good for an actor.

    I sort of understood that when I first started: that you shouldn't repeat a success. Very often you're going to, and maybe the first time you do, it works. And you love it. But then you're trapped.

    I think that's what distinguishes Schmidt, really. In the movies now, so much of what is appealing to an audience is the dramatic or has to do with science fiction, and Schmidt is simply human. There's no melodrama; there's no device, It's just about a human being.

    I'll tell you one thing: Don't ever give anybody your best advice, because they're not going to follow it.
