For me, acting is torturous, and it's torturous because you know it's a beautiful thing. I was young once, and I said, that's beautiful and I want that. Wanting it is easy, but trying to be great - well, that's absolutely torturous.

I would definitely say pleasure is not happiness. Because I think I kill pleasure. Like I take too much of it in, and therefore make it un-pleasurable, like too much coffee, and you're miserable.

Study, find all the good teachers and study with them, get involved in acting to act, not to be famous or for the money. Do plays. It's not worth it if you are just in it for the money. You have to love it.

Learning how to die is therefore learning how to live.

The weight comes off, you know? If you stop with the bread and the pie, it really does. It really works.

The ambition, the drive, the wanting to be the center of attention, the wanting to succeed... They're all inside me somewhere.
