I think the way we talk about cancer has really evolved. I remember the way my grandmother used to talk about it, like a death sentence, no-one would even mention the word.

Fame didn't happen to me in my 20s, it has been a gradual thing which probably makes it easier to deal with.

For me to have the opportunity to stay with one character for, God willing, a long period of time, is really exciting.

I think everybody handles things very differently and you can conjecture, but until you're put in that situation, you really don't know.

The (Sir Arthur Conan Doyle) stories were great, for one. The thing that makes him a remarkable character is how he can withstand all of these different interpretations and different styles and, that's what makes a classic character a classic character; they keep coming back and you see them in a new way every time.

Some big movies are terrific, and some aren't. They're made for different reasons, and they have different impacts and they're very different experiences making them. But if they're good, if you're with good people, then hooray.

Doing the right thing has power.
