The more ambivalent you are and the more uncertain you are, then you can get something that you cannot anticipate.

Very often the Group actor is a critic when he's acting and an actor when he's criticizing.

I gave my life to the Group Theatre, because in it I'm building something for myself. What I build, I am.

I question the value of stars. I think they're overrated. They get too much money, too much praise.

I wouldn't go up on a stage now if you paid a thousand dollars for one minute of acting. It's a nasty experience. You're up there all by yourself. You're so damn exposed.

I've lost many of my best friends... I'm going to satisfy myself now, not the critics, not even my friends.

I like directors who come on the set and create something that's a little dangerous, difficult or unusual.
