That place that no one knows about - horrifying things we keep secret. A lot of that is released through acting.

I'd like to have a decade of my life back. I dropped into a void for almost a decade.

You're out there on a high wire without a net, and that's the way actors operate. They have to be fearless about how they work and they have to create a life for the audience in 90 minutes and make them believe.

I think I've done 200 plays and 125 movies, so I've been very lucky to have made a living at acting.

Of course, I'm not often the top dog, but sometimes it's better not to be top dog, because you last longer. If a movie or play flops, you always blame the lead. They say, 'He couldn't carry it.' They always blame him. But they rarely blame the second or third banana.

I lack confidence as an actor.
