You do what you do best, try to stop guys like me

When you make a drama, you spend all day beating a guy to death with a hammer, or what have you. Or, you have to take a bite out of somebody's face. On the other hand, with a comedy, you yell at Billy Crystal for an hour, and you go home.

You have to think about one shot. One shot is what it's all about. A deer's gotta be taken with one shot.

When you are working hard, you don't have time for anything other than what you are doing in the scene and what the director wants.

Good directors can bring certain things out of you, with their intensity or gentleness or sensitivity or understanding. They can make an actor feel he can do no wrong.

As I get older, I think that things have been pre-determined for me, whether I liked it or wanted it, wished for it, whatever, way before in some way. And with others, you do have a choice that you can change. And that choice that you make is still part of this grand scheme.

I don't remember what made me want to be an actor. In fact, I'm always curious.
