Liev Schreiber

Everyone assumes that novelists are smarter and more interesting. They're generally smarter and more interesting, but they're often very short. So it kind of cancels all the smart and interesting stuff out.

When I was a teenager, 'Playboy' was the most interesting magazine in the world, and not just for the playmates. I liked the interviews and the stories, and all that, but nowadays most of the stuff in there doesn't interest me.

I like to use my hands and make things... It might seem pretty stupid or pointless but that doesn't matter... some of the most interesting work is the stuff that starts like that - out of a raw need for activity.

People go back to the stuff that doesn't cost a lot of money and the stuff that you don't have to hand money to over and over again. Stuff that you get for free, stuff that your older brother gives you, stuff that you can get out of the local library.

Once in awhile, there's stuff that makes me say, That's what theatre's about. It has to be a human event on the stage, and that doesn't happen very often.

Critics? How do they happen? I know how it happened to me. I would send a poem or story to a magazine and they would say this doesn't suit our needs precisely but on the other hand you sound interesting. Would you be interested in doing a review?

I'm trying to mix the cool, independent stuff with the big stuff, but it's been difficult finding the right roles. It's been an interesting ride as far as my career pendulum is concerned.

The more decisions you make, the better, statistically, your odds of success are. And what I also learned was, it doesn't matter: anything can be fixed. When you're directing, you can agonize, but you can't indulge. Stuff has to happen.

I think real life reflects your movies. In your life, you pick stuff that influences what movie roles you wanna pick. I think if you've got an interesting life, you wanna do interesting movies about interesting things.

It's interesting, because in the corporate stuff there's a dichotomy there, depending on the creator. Even what, in essence, may be a very safe corporate approach, there is some stuff that is allowed to be pushed.

Robert Carlyle

Acting is probably the greatest therapy in the world. You can get a lot stuff out of you on the set so you don't have to take it home with you at night. It's the stuff between the lines, the empty space between those lines which is interesting.

Make It Happen

Like a supersonic boom coming at ya
One thing on my mind
Everybody' out to get something
Ain't no compromise

You know that I am gonna wait
I'm gonna take my time I'm gonna take my time
There no need to anticipate
I'm gonna make you mine make you mine

A total transformation
Eyes move into dilation
No need for complication
So take a look inside

Give it up
Step on up
We have got
The right stuff
Let's make it happen
Shake your rhythm now feel the notion
Shake your rhythm you're the motion

Give it up
Step on out
I know where
You know how
Let's make it happen
Shake your rhythm now feel the notion
Shake your rhythm you're the motion

Movin' though the crowd I can feel you
Need you by my side
Feel your body move through night into morning
Just enjoy the ride

You know that I am gonna wait
I'm gonna take my time I'm gonna take my time
There no need to anticipate
I'm gonna make you mine make you mine

Give it up
Step on up
We have got
The right stuff
Let's make it happen
Shake your rhythm now feel the notion
Shake your rhythm you're the motion

Give it up
Step on up
We have got
The right stuff
Let's make it happen
Shake your rhythm now feel the notion
Shake your rhythm you're the motion

Let's make it happen
Sing it to me let's make it happen
Give it up
Let's make it happen
Give it up
Let's make it happen

Give it up
Step on up
We have got
The right stuff
Let's make it happen
Shake your rhythm now feel the notion
Shake your rhythm you're the motion

Just Because

Just because you did
Doesn't mean that you should
Just because you can
Doesn't mean that you could
Just because you are able
Doesn't mean you would
Just because you sat
Doesn't mean you should‘ve stood.
Just because you spoke
Doesn't mean that you thought
Just because you looked
Doesn't mean that you sought
Just because you argued
Doesn't mean that you fought
Just because you dreamed
Doesn't mean that you wished not.
Just because you cried
Doesn't mean that you wept
Just because you had
Doesn't mean that you kept
Just because you cleaned
Doesn't mean that you swept
Just because you said yes
Doesn't mean that you accept.
Just because you gathered
Doesn't mean that you own
Just because you gave up
Doesn't mean that you were alone
Just because you saw
Doesn't mean that you were shown
Just because you expiate
Doesn't mean you should atone.
Just because your old
Doesn't mean that you have flaws
Just because you won
Doesn't mean you have to applause
Just because you waited
Doesn't mean that you paused
Just because you were you
Doesn't mean anything, because.

You can have immediate regrets, but if you look at stuff and say: "Things happen for a reason", there's a fatalistic thing about it. Something will happen that will justify it in some way.

Fallen In Love

HOW should I go about it?
cos I think I'll try it out
I think I'll test my luckk
try my numbers, don't give a fu
If it doesn't happen, it doesn't happen
it just wasn't meant to be
it's not like i'm not used to it
it always happens to me
Not confident in my chances
never won this game before
scant of skill from my past romances
now I've found someone worth fighting for
your green eyes are my blue skies
and the reason I'm writing again
can imagine how my heart must seem so loud
as you stand above all other men

Things Happen For Their Reasons

Things happen for their reasons.
And there is no need to make excuses,
For the obviousness...
Of those mistakes made.

Things happen for their reasons.
And,
What is there to say...
That can excuse mistakes away.

Stop that need to medicate.
Things happen for their reasons.
Why waste time in prolonged debates.
Thing happen for their reasons.
What is the purpose for seeking escapes.
Things happen for their reasons.
Acceptance eases,
The facing of one's fate.

Things happen for their reasons.
They happen for their reasons.

Stop that need to feed on grief.
Things happen for their reasons.
Why squeeze a healing wound to bleed.
Things happen for their reasons
They happen for their reasons.

And aging doesn't make one safe.
Or offer escapades as a gateway to charade.
Things happen for their reasons.
They happen for their reasons.

Things happen for their reasons.
And there is no need to make excuses,
For the obviousness...
Of those mistakes made.

Even while one ages,
With a life reminisced played on many stages...
Try their best to gracefully accept,
Things happen for their reasons.
And those experienced,
Eventually see this.

Things happen for their reasons.
And in the living of one's life...
A discovery reveals,
Those reasons with insight.

There There

In pitch dark I go walking in your landscape
Broken branches trip me as I speak
Just cos you feel it doesn't mean it's there
Just cos you feel it doesn't mean it's there
There's always a siren singing you to shipwreck (don't reach out, don't reach out x2)
Stay away from these rocks we'd be a walking disaster (don't reach out, don't reach out x2)
Just cos you feel it doesn't mean it's there (there's someone on your shoulder x2)
Just coz you feel it doesn't mean it's there (there's someone on your shoulder x2)
There there
Why so green
And lonely x3
Heaven sent you
To me x3
We are accidents waiting
Waiting to happen
We are accidents waiting
Waiting to happen

Naomi Watts

On set is where I feel comfortable. The red carpet stuff, talking about the film, explaining your own life, it doesn't come naturally. It's all necessary stuff I suppose but it's not my strength.
