In 8th grade I started doing theatre and I remember it was as though I had taken a trip to a foreign land that I had never seen before yet felt completely at home. I remember feeling a genuine wave of happiness and of feeling complete.

I really haven't joined the 20th or the 21st century yet. Someday. I'm getting closer. I have voicemail and a fax machine.

I have walked away from enormous amounts of money and I have made that life I have wanted somewhat in this business. I love doing independent film, I love doing theater, I love doing studio films, and I do all three now.

I'll read a script maybe twice, but I'll think about the role more than I'll rehearse lines.

I think it kind of took being a character actor to kind of now enter into leading ladies.

I'm really a director's actor. I rely heavily on a director.

I have stunning friends. I value my friendships as I value my family.
