With every character, you alter, you can’t be attached to your own identity.

If I ever feel that this is dangerous or I'm scared of it, then that probably draws me more towards it.

I suppose the underlying current for me is the idea of not doing something I've done before. I call myself a character actor and I'm always trying to stay a character actor.

I think we do need radicals. We need extremists, because that's how change happens.

I think actors are getting so much more power these days, but I'm not. I stay very much away from the decisions, the way in which things are orchestrated, what's been changed. I just try to stay completely in the role as the actor and as the character.

Every day there is a compromise. Living with somebody requires a lot of understanding. But I love being married. I really love it.

Why do a crappy film role when you can do a meaty stage role? and ...I'm not small and curvy and I don't fit the prerequiste for small, passive, sexy chicks.
