Very often when I go in to meet for movies or pilots, I'm put on videotape. I hate the notion that that tape is going to sit on a shelf and never get better.

When something really extreme happens, you have to find a way to embrace that and include it in how you think about the character. Sometimes it's not easy.

Every time I hear, Cut. Print, something cold and electrical goes off in my head, because I'm never going to change that film.

I love pulling people into concert halls who might not otherwise go and getting their ears tuned.

People are nice enough, but you can hear the giant tick of the second hand. People are so harried.

Something happens to us all when we experience something as a unit that doesn't occur when we're on our couches or holding our little portable DVD players.

I will never master this craft. Orchestras are very, very forthcoming with me.
