I like my work to stand on its own as much as possible.

For me, acting is play. It's just play and it's playing make believe really, really well.

You don't need to like your protagonists.

The whole cable-TV original programming just changed the nature of television.

Life fundamentally does not change depending on work or fame or success.

I don't care about sympathy. I care about playing a character who's understandable and clear.

I love the process of acting, simply because I like to play make believe. But for me, it is purely make believe and it is a process of playing.
