I grew up in a household where everybody lived at the top of his lungs.

It's my job to try to communicate with as little showiness as possible. I was a really showy actor as a young man.

We do most of what we do out of our sexual energy and our sexual needs.

It's interesting to fantasize having a man sink his teeth into your neck for sustenance, knowing that it isn't going to be terribly painful but rather very exciting

I'd always felt a man should marry later in life.

But I firmly believe that you can't be emotionally free until you are emotionally committed.

When I closed in "King Lear" I went into a period of depression for about three weeks, and every actor I've talked to who's ever played a major, major Shakespeare role has done this.
