I have no memory, any at all, of actually performing the play, no recall in terms of the lines. I can't tell you any line from any play I've ever done.

I used to think that prizes were damaging and divisive, until I got one, and now they seem sort of meaningful and important.

I guess part of the hit-man appeal is the solitude. Everybody is lured to the idea of the solitary life.

I don't spend a lot of time with anybody.

When you've been going on about something for a while, it is always satisfying to discover that other people agree with you.

I don't seem to be able to learn from experience or anything useful. History doesn't help me. Precedents don't inform my experience.

I don't do plays without jokes anymore. I've retired from those plays. I think it's bad manners to invite people to sit in the dark for two and a half hours and not tell them the joke.
