You want people to watch what you're doing.

With any mannerisms or dialogue, you have to be careful you're not just serving yourself. What happens with improving is a lot of times, if you're not in the framework of the script, you're just making everything easier so it fits you. It's much more interesting and challenging to go to it, rather than it coming to you.

The script - and a good one - tells you everything that you need to know.

The more you think about something, the more important it becomes, the more important it is to you, and the more important it will become to the audience.

You're always - you're constantly learning things if you're the type of person who stays open and current.

I really believe that you never stop learning.
