Violence and racism are bad. Whenever they occur they are to be condemned and we should not turn a blind eye to them.

Audiences want to see them, and in fact, they earn money. The world is round, people.

Being on stage a lot is quite physical.

I love strange choices. I'm always interested in people who depart from what is expected of them and go into new territory.

When you're a performer, of course you want an audience, but it's very, very different from courting fame.

It was only when I realized how actors have the power to move people that I decided to pursue acting as a career.

What I love about the theater is that you know who you're acting for: your audience. And the thing I find really hard in film is, you don't. The audience is invisible. And we're sitting there, hoping there's other people out there.
