I'm always being asked to play roles or characters that I don't really resemble.

I subscribe to the great George G. Scott quote, "All actors are in trouble. Directors who don't help are a pain in the ass". We all need help from directors. We are all equally insecure.

Instead of being a theater actor who sometimes does movies I became a movie actor who sometimes does theater.

Look at the darkest hit musicals - Cabaret, West Side Story, Carousel - they are exuberant experiences. They send you out of the theater filled with music

Anyone who hears enough laughter and applause at a young age will become an actor, whether they intend to or not.

We should have charity for what the dead say. We may disapprove of what they say, but we should not insult them and revile them knowing they cannot not defend themselves.

You kill three people, they call you a murderer. You kill a million people, they call you a conqueror. Go figure.
