I think if I were to go back on stage I might be in great danger of acting.

Millions of children are disempowered and we need to empower them.

But filming is good for you, because the crew isn't allowed to laugh. You can't get addicted to getting the laugh.

I'm very in love with the fact that the camera is revolted by acting and loves behaviour.

There is so much to do on a film set. It is an extraordinarily invigorating and wonderful place to be, when things are running well.

I think the actor has a tribal role as the archetypal story teller. I think there was a time when the storyteller, the priest, the healer, were all one person in one body. That person used to weave stories at night around a small fire to keep the tribe from being terrified that sun had gone down.

I have never felt bereft of anything.
