I'm a big fan of period pieces, and I'm a big fan of the old-time westerns.

We're living in a time where we want to be entertained but I think part of what people are looking for, that they don't even know they're looking for is to be uplifted in many ways.

When I perform on stage, you have to remember my performance or buy another ticket to the party! In television and film, you can see it over and over again.

When I listen to my scene partners and listen to their breathing allows me to be connected to them in scenes. I am not trying to multi task, not trying to talk on the phone, but in my character.

The beauty of the unexpected and unknown, and it's certainly very tantalizing for me as an actor. Other actors can't deal with that; they want to know, but then they make choices and decisions with that knowledge because that knowledge gives them forethought, and they can think about how they want to play something that takes away spontaneity of what they could be doing.

I can only control what I do. I can try to suggest and be open, but trust is the key.

Middle-class people are becoming desperate. It can cause a moral man to break bad.
