The director respects what they've hired you for and chosen you for: to do the part and respect what you're doing.

I guess the only thing to do now is meet his parents. I'm sure they're decent people. I mean they gotta be if they named their son Gaylord Focker.

I love to find new people. It's not for the sake of their being new; it's because if you find someone who perfectly fits a part, that's such a great thing.

Auditions are like a gamble. Most likely you won't get the part, but if you don't go, you'll never know if you could've got it.

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

You don't just play a part. You've got to earn the right to play it.

In the casino, the cardinal rule is to keep them playing and to keep them coming back. The longer they play, the more they lose, and in the end, we get it all.
