As an actor, no matter what, you're at the whim of so many other people all the time.

I think I find tactile things, you know. Just the feeling of blood itself is enough for me. If you, even if it's not real blood. I mean that's enough, like sometimes there are very simple things that are enough.

Often times it's really hard for me to articulate why I connect to something.

I have a mentor. I have... guides. I have a lot of guides. Not a lot, but people whose opinions I really respect and who I will turn to.

Do I take care of my body and take conditioning seriously? Yes.

There are standards. I like to be prepared, I guess I should say - that type of pressure of, "All right, now you go with abandon," you know. Now when you're in it, you let go of all the things - that's what happens when you're onstage.

In that way, as an actor in particular, you're powerless. And so in that way as an actor in particular you can't make mistakes.
