Quote

"What would happen if you melted? You know, you never really hear this talked about much, but spontaneous combustion? It exists!...[people] burn from within...sometimes they'll be in a wooden chair and the chair won't burn, but there'll be nothing left of the person. Except sometimes his teeth. Or the heart. No one speaks about this, but its for real."

[On being a star] "It can still be very surreal. It's easy to become very self-critical when you're an actor. Then you get critiqued be the critics. Whether you agree with them or not, people are passing judgement on you."
[On drugs] I've had wonderful experiences. I mean really wonderful. In teaching. Personal epiphanies. About life. About a different perspective -- help with different perspectives that you have. You know what I mean? Relationships to nature. Relationships with the self. With other people. With events."

-----Biography from Leonard Maltin's Movie Encyclopedia: Gangly, vacant-looking young actor who has proven himself a skilled screen performer in a surprising variety of roles, beginning in 1986 (with Youngblood from the dumb-butgoodhearted in gonzo teen comedies Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure (1989) and Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey (1991), to the appealing-but-venal in the extremely offbeat My Own Private Idaho (1991). He seems to have been born to play troubled modern teens, as he has in River's Edge (1986), The Prince of Pennsylvania, The Night Before and the high-school suicide tale Permanent Record (all 1988). But he's been equally impressive in the costume drama Dangerous Liaisons (1988) and the offbeat early-1950s comedy EB> (1990). He can play straight (as in 1989's Parenthood) or for laughs (as in 1990's I Love You to Death).He's come face-to-face with the Prince of Darkness in Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992), tackled Shakespeare in Kenneth Branagh's Much Ado About Nothing (1993), and played Prince Siddhartha for Bernardo Bertolucci in Little Buddha (1994). (He also contributed a cameo to his friend-and Bill & Ted costar-Alex Winter's 1993 film Freaked) Other recent credits include Even Cowgirls Get the Blues and Speed (both 1994). Not everyone has accepted this youthful actor in his "classical" parts, but his earnestness has won many converts.
