The big catalyst was seeing my sister, when I was 11, doing a dramatic recital. When I saw her on the stage and everyone listening to her so patiently, quietly, that's all I wanted: for someone to look at me and listen to me, but in some beautiful and artistic way.

I love acting, especially if it's a fantasy of some kind, where it's not just realistic, it's not naturalism.

I'm funny on camera sometimes. In life, once in a while. Once in a while.

Gene Wilder characters wanted to be calm, but to the great delight of audiences, they rarely succeeded.

So shines a good deed... in a weary world.

I'm in complete remission. I'm alive and well.

When your mother gives you confidence about anything that you do, you carry that confidence with you.She made me believe that I could make someone laugh.
