I reckon domesticated cats have a pretty good life.

When you have a character to work with, you carry them around in a strange way - they make you look at the world in a different way.

It's fun to pretend you're good at something you know you wouldn't be good at in real life.

I think that sometimes in theater, I don't prepare much beyond going to the rehearsals.

What I notice about people who are gifted in filmmaking is that they're great thinkers. They engage with big ideas and they engage with people.

I don’t think that actors are necessarily any more uncomfortable in their skin than anyone else. I suppose I feel more comfortable in my skin now, but you’re always playing a character, aren’t you? You tell different versions of yourself to different people and vice versa. Here, or in the photo shoot or wherever, it’s a representation of you. It’s not you-you. That’s how you get through it.

I always feel I am in the dark. You are never finished... it is not as if you can look back and think: ah... I know what I am talking about. You are only as good as your last job and are always struggling and striving and you never quite get to where you want to be.
