I'd rather feel empathy for a character that's fictional, so it doesn't quite tie into personal experience as much.

If someone's trying to intimidate me, male or female, I don't respect them enough to be intimidated.

I'm loyal to a fault. I may have learned that from my mother.

I know I can't make everyone happy, but I know I can do the most justice I can possibly do to a character, or any character, if I put my all into it. That's the choice you have to make.

My fame? Truly I don't consider myself famous...long way to go yet. But if anyone does ask for an autograph it's a wonderful feeling.

If you've got nothing else, passion will get you through.

There is a story that you have to tell within a certain amount of time, and you can only show so much of the character. So as much as the script is born from the source material, there are certain limitations.
