I am a really writer-oriented actor.

We all have to have our north star that we fix on and go to, but life is so much about the things that bump into you.

When I read a story that I think has value and I want to be in it, that doesn't change for me. It doesn't fall out of favor for me. I might have to move on because the universe is saying you can't make this right now. But I'm going to circle back and make it.

I like American history, so I was aware of the participants and a lot of it.

If you don't understand your limitations you won't achieve much in your life.

Great stories don't often make great movies. Its' a crafted art form.

President Kennedy was willing to go to war. He was not a coward. The man had been in war and so had Ken O'Donnell. He was ready to protect this nation, but he was not ready for a military solution just because it was being rammed down his throat.
