Philip Seymour Hoffman

When people don't know who you are, they're seeing your work for the first time. But if they've seen a lot, getting certain things across is a more difficult.

I know I wasn't as handsome as some other guys, but I was OK with that.

I didn't go out looking for negative characters; I went out looking for people who have a struggle and a fight to tackle. That's what interests me.

I don't like to get in front of people.

There's never been anything I didn't love that I didn't connect with on a personal level because, to some degree, I projected upon it.

If you're not having a good time, find something else that gives you some joy in life.
