I don't want to associate myself with any specific group of politicians.

As you get older you feel you need to pay more attention to what is around you and relish it. I'm greedy for beauty.

One of the things that is assumed about actors is that they are extrovert, which is almost never the case, in my experience.

I'm not famous for my back story investigations; I'm lucky that I work with good writers and it's usually in the script.

It's more than usually possible that I won't do a play again. But Skylight is one of the great plays in the English language. I was lucky enough to be a part of it at one point in its life, and it's a timely thing to deliver it again in the modern world.

I am a fan of rehearsal. I like doing it [scene] over and over and over and over until it looks like you never did it before.

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.
