I'm very flower-like. I love classical music. I go to ballet and I cry. There's nothing so beautiful.

I just hate the idea of being well known. I know that is almost impossible if you're an actor who has done okay, but I've always fought against it.

Oh yeah, I'd love to be a comedian. I've done a lot, but always in the confines of plays.

I used to be gay, but I was forced to give it up, because it made my eyes water.

Paul Schofield said something like, 'If I'm not acting in a play, I don't really exist.' Those weren't the exact words, but he meant it's only when I'm acting in a play that I've got something to say about the world. And then why should I talk, when people can come to see it?

Every part I play is just a variant of my own personality. No real character actor, of course, just me.
