When I started acting, it was really the way for me to be able to communicate.

In a way, one gets stability from being able to order the rational mind.

I have made plenty of mistakes. The key to life is to learn from them. I have been a little too introspective, but I think that stemmed from insecurity or shyness. I took a long time to grow up.

A lot of making a movie is the comfort level of the people. It's just feeling open. We need to get along. We have to know something about each other.

I'm younger than I once was. Internally. Less self-conscious. Less insecure.

Movie acting is primarily listening. If you're really engaged, that's all a movie audience wants to see is you processing what's happening in your world.

In saving Tibet, you save the possibility that we are all brothers, sisters.
