[on Stephen Rea, his partner in The Crying Game (1992)] I would imagine that Stephen would have been more uncomfortable with me than I would have been with him. See, I'm from another world from Stephen's life. Stephen is an actor -- a Belfast actor, married with children. And he ends up working with someone like me. I felt sorry for Stephen. I can't speak for him, of course, but I just thought, ''This poor man has to kiss me.'' Hide

It's sad when people are oppressed. But it's a question of rising above it. Personally, mentally and, if you have to, physically. " Hide
