I love histories. I love learning. I love books that talk about people who made a real impact on history, because it always has to do with who they were at that time and what their personalities were like and what their strengths and weaknesses were.

As an actor, I go where the good writing is. That's the bottom line.

Good roles are hard to find no matter what age.

I think having pets helps sensitize people to the natural world.
