I'm not living the life I thought I would lead, but it does have meaning, purpose. There is love... there is joy... there is laughter.

Either you vegetate and look out a window, or activate and try to effect change.

there is a relationship between the mind and the body that can both create a physical condition and enable us to recover from it

And if you can channel the truth of your own experience onto the stage, that's what the audience wants to see.

What I do is based on powers we all have inside us; the ability to endure; the ability to love, to carry on, to make the best of what we have - and you don't have to be a 'Superman' to do it.

What makes Superman a hero is not that he has power, but that he has the wisdom and the maturity to use the power wisely. From an acting point of view, that's how I approached the part.

A hero is someone who, in spite of weakness, doubt or not always knowing the answers, goes ahead and overcomes anyway.
