As actors, we are so privileged to do what we do and to give to the world and to choose the subject we want to say to the world.

I want to know why I'm alive. I want to understand. It's like exploration; it's like someone being interested in a place and its history, digging into the earth and looking for it, searching - it's a passion.

A director could be 20 years old and an actor 60, or vice versa; it doesn't matter. It's about connecting sensibility and energy together, and having a vision that goes together and anchors the film as you go along.

I never felt being an actor or making a movie was an easy thing to do.

My outlook on life is to be true. To take risks. To love the shadows as well as the light. To find your task. To recognise your task. To be active.

As an actor, I have to be fulfilled in the roles that I play; it has to be a journey for me to learn something or involve myself.

Changing someone's life is not the best, is not wanting to change the other life. It is being who you are that changes another's life. Do you understand?
