Its extremely dangerous to compare anyone else to Shakespeare.

When I look around at Broadway and the West End, theatre is becoming an exclusive club.

Look, I might have lived in England for the last several years but I'm still an American citizen and I have not given up my right to privacy.

I cotton to the idea that people are much closer to being flawed; they have problems and dont always make the right choices.

To me, getting up every single night and trying to reach out to an audience, and trying to dig deeper and further in the play to serve the writer and to understand yourself in that context is how you continue to grow and learn.

There are two things that have been happening over the last few decades in my opinion. First, there have been unbelievable, remarkable, pioneering advances in technology and, second, an equal amount of evolution in creativity. These two shifts are meeting at an intersection.

If you haven't turned rebel by twenty you've got no heart; if you haven't turned establishment by thirty you've got no brains!
