There's good and bad everywhere in any aspect in life. The only people who we can't really trust are politicians. Because those guys lie to everybody and constantly.

When I don't know what to do with a character, that's when I say yes to it. When it's far away from the way I am, the way I feel or the way I think, that's when it's more attractive.

We have a demon, we have an angel inside, within our souls, and you just play with it, and sometimes the evil part of you wins the battle, in a very important decision, or in a bedtime, with your lover. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose.

As a young actor, I booked a movie in the U.S. I didn't speak any English at the time, so I learned my lines phonetically when I auditioned for it.

I believe in creative work.

I don't believe in bad and good, I believe we are all a mix of both.

I don't hide or play stupid games.

I grew up in the theater. I began my career at 3. That was the first time I stepped onto a provisional stage.

I have been in the business long enough to know what an intense amount of work it takes to operate a theater company.

I left my parents' home when I was 22, I moved to New York with my ex-girlfriend. We did a film together with Raul Julia.

I try to be as clear as I can be.

I was lucky that audiences in Mexico liked my work. I was even luckier when I got to do movies and plays with my brothers.

I'm an old-fashioned guy.

It would be sad if my best work had been 20 years ago and now I only had memories.

'Lincoln' is a powerful film. It's one of those epic films that talk about this very specific issue in history of the United States.

My two brothers and I grew up in the theater, going everywhere with my parents when they performed.

We all have that capacity, to be two things. And after all I was named for both the devil and the angel. Demonio y angel. Dem-y-an.

When you do a film, all you want is to make the best film possible. You don't think about Oscars. But it's really flattering. Please, bring it on!

When you shoot a film, you have very little time to waste, and I try to go into the character as soon as possible and stay there as much as I can.

You don't need tons of money to create art. You do need tons of money to be a part of show business. They are two different things.
