There's a certain secret every actor must have in his work. If you reveal it, you're letting the audience in on the wrinkles and convolutions of your brain. All I want them to do is to see the effect.

At this point in my career, I can stand shoulder to shoulder with an actor my age who has chosen to do really awful things, and he will get a job over me.

Where you are is where it's at.... Don't ever give up & don't ever give in.

There's nothing like the bravery and the strength and the extraordinary optimism of a five-year-old child in a cancer hospital, fighting to live. It's there inside the spirit.

You can only lead by example.

Revelations come when you're in the thick of it, pitting yourself up against something larger than yourself

I watch actors destroy themselves by trying to get it right.
