I started in theatre. I was at Cleveland and I went to London for the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare's birth.

What happens when you're naked is that people get that you're really just a human being. There are parts of it that are pretty appalling, and there are parts that are okay. That's what it looks like. If you can embrace and accept what people look like in the altogether, it's not so difficult to accept them with their clothes on.

Pets are humanizing. They remind us we have an obligation and responsibility to preserve and nurture and care for all life.

The attitude we have towards our personal pets as opposed to the animals that suffer under the factory farm is hypocritical and delusional.

The kids know me from 'Babe,' but usually it is 'L.A. Confidential' that people remember, which was the second film I did. I have worked with some really good people and the films that I've done for the most part have been good.

Pigs may not be as cuddly as kittens or puppies, but they suffer just as much.

I'm an animal rights activist because I believe we won't have a planet if we continue to behave toward other species the way we do.
