The audience, the place youre in, has everything to do with how your performance goes.

I've been around politics a long time. I've seen it at its best and its worst, been at so many events, listened to private conversations versus public speaking, understood the game of it, and in many ways the theatrics.

If you're lucky enough to have done well, then it's your responsibility to send the elevator back down.

Sometimes you walk away from playing somebody and you think, "Wow that was far as from my own experience as I can possibly be." And sometimes you walk away thinking, "Wow. There are qualities in that character that I didn't realize I had." And those can be both interesting and uncomfortable.

For me, coming to work every day has turned out to be exactly what I hoped it would be.

The story is everything, which means it's our job to tell better stories.

I accept the fact that some things dont go the way you hope.
