Money has never been my primary goal.

What's great about well-written material is, if you can shock with justifiable actions, that's the best.

I want to be done, and actually, go "I had a good run. No regrets. I'm ready to step aside."

Luck is a component that a lot of people in the arts sometimes fail to recognise: that you can have talent, perseverance, patience, but without luck you will not have a successful career.

I do force myself to sleep with myself to get the job. But that's always a disappointment.

When actors first come up, you're auditioning for everything - you're trying to sniff it out like a pig with a truffle and you would do anything!
