It's really interesting that, in 'The Avengers,' the character that people relate to is The Hulk, and I think the reason why they relate to The Hulk is because he's fragile and human and faulty.

Film is just a different version of what we did round the campfire when we were Neanderthals. We tell stories so people can learn things and relativise things.

When you want something enough, it brings out primal emotions. You get into this place of 'must happen, must happen.'

The great thing about theater is that you have so much time to prepare, and to fail, before presenting it to the public. In film, the high-wire act seems to be that much farther up, and the net seems to be less there.

When you feel like an oddball, it never really leaves you. Even now, I'm better around people who are uncomfortable with themselves - the misfits.

I think we just live in a time of the selfie. So there's a sense that everyone's uniqueness and importance on this planet should be displayed and reveled in, and that there's kind of a piece of glory for everyone.

I have no control over what people think, and if I were to spend energy on that, I would be a lifeless, deadened human being.

I had a job at this French restaurant, and I hated it. I don't like serving; I don't like getting people ketchup.

Lying does exist in crazy forms.

I was sick of being articulate and loud and charming. I didn't want to play that guy anymore. I wanted to play the absolute opposite of that.

I'm an actor, but I am an awful liar.

I feel prematurely old. I'm actually having this major belated quarter-life crisis. I'm turning 30 in a couple of weeks. I've been thinking a lot about mortality. A lot about what I'm going to do with my life and how to enjoy it. One of the things I'm going to work on is being more spontaneous, letting go, embracing the beauty of come-what-may.

I have such awful skin; it doesn't matter what magic serum they think they're putting on - I'll usually break out.

I try to live joyfully and the by the rule of treating others how you'd want to be treated - that's a good one to stick by.

I always enjoyed singing; I played guitar.

Action films unfortunately don't let you spend a lot of time sitting. So you don't have much time to create something indelible or unique.

Musical theater is great; you get painted up, you get to play princesses and witches, and you sing. The joy alone of that can really carry a lot.

I've sung in the shower for years.

My father has been an actor since 1964. Things were tight a lot of the times, financially. It wasn't like a big romantic adventure.

L.A.'s a pretty, warm, easy, breezy place. You can sunbathe, get a Mai Tai, and wake up five months later. And it's still sunny. And they're still serving Mai Tais.
