I'm as flighty as anybody. You put a lot out there. I've been through the process a lot. When I play a major role, it's my instinct to create a nice atmosphere. People in the major roles dominate the tone of an entire film. To my mind, it's much easier to work creatively when everyone's friendly.

I keep looking for things I haven't done yet.

I went to Harvard and immediately fell into the theater gang, and I was already an experienced actor, so you go with the flow! I've already used the phrase "campus star."

If my life was a play, age 35 was my intermission.

For me, working on stage is much more exhausting than all the other mediums, but it's also much more thrilling.

Books make great gifts because they're something you love that you can share.

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