Nothing seems to matter but ourselves. That's not how I was brought up. I don't recognize the country I live in anymore.

As an actor, you're always at the service of somebody else's vision. In a play, it's more of the director's vision, and he or she's got their hands on you all the way up to opening night, and if it's a film, there are even more people.

We're all capable of anything as human beings. Any emotion, any action. We really are.

The biggest compliment I think an actor can get is I can't imagine anyone else in the role.

The indie world changed when the economy went south. I was frustrated with doing something, then waiting for it to come out, and sometimes it never did, or would just play in New York for 50 people. So I really wanted to try something else.

You know, its really strange now with the Internet, with everyone having an unsolicited, anonymous opinion.

Television in the last few years has been where all the great writers are going. TV now is what indie film used to be.
