I am very aware that playwrights, particularly good ones, have a intention for everything they write. Language and punctuation is used specifically, and most of the time actors can find wonderful clues about character in the rhythm and cadence of the language used.

I don't consider myself a celebrity, and I don't consider myself a star.

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.

I love to work in all sorts of different situations. I think you learn a lot, which is why I try not to approach something the same way, because it might not be appropriate, and then you can get lazy just out of boredom. So I love any approach.

I hope that anyone I worked with wouldn't exploit our relationship.

I am very lucky, because for the most part people are very nice to me, and I am still able to go about my life and ride the subway and all that.

You know when someone's over-flattering you in a way. You smile but you can't believe it.
