If you judge the character, you cant play it.

I love working in New York theater.

The first time that I came to New York to work properly was the mid-'80s, but I was doing eight shows a week. You have no life. Going to a punk rock club - or whatever the music was at that time - would not have been on my agenda.

If you spend any time in Los Angeles, there's only one topic of conversation.

Each character I play has different dimensions. I'm not interested in words that pull them together.

Being on the stage in New York is always exciting because you feel like you're part of the life of the city.

The directors you trust the most are the ones, when you ask them a question, they've got the guts to say, 'I don't know.'
