I think that all of us either lose touch with the child inside us or try and hold onto it because it so precious to us and it's such an extraordinary part of our lives.

I think Romeo and Juliet is uplifting. That's how much a son wishes to avenge his father. That is how much two young people can love each other.

You cannot learn a lesson of profound forgiveness unless you understand what it is to be wounded and forgive that which has wounded you.

I think that most actors attempt to keep in touch with the child.

We are adjusters. We empathize, we change rhythm and above all we listen to our fellow actors-if they're good actors.

You want to know what I want? I'll tell you what I want. I want back what Bobby Fischer took with him when he disappeared.
