I would like to have children while I've still got the energy. But then I have the feeling that when I have children I'll stop performing in the same way, because you don't really need to perform if you have children.

The theater is a need for me. It's a terrible attraction, something I'm compelled to do. And one derives a form of nourishment from the theater which you can never get from films. Making films weakens you in some way. With the theater, the work itself is a regenerative process.

Just stay alive, no matter what occurs! I will find you. No matter how long it takes, no matter how far. I will find you!

At some point in your life, if you're lucky, you get to design the way in which things evolve.

I'm a warrior when it comes to pursuing roles.

Actors should never give interviews.

I don't know what impression you might have of the way I live. I live in a quiet place. I do not live as a hermit, though other people would prefer it if I did.
