You have to think an awful lot about your motivations or people's behavioral intentions or what their body language can indicate or what's really going on or what makes people sometimes do, sometimes, the irrational things they do.

I do believe all actors are smart.

Artists speak the truth to the public without fear of retribution or damage to their careers.

I don't even like to use the word relationship. I don't know what it means.

Nothing gets a bigger laugh than when you refer to things like ethics or human rights.

Acting is not about knowing all this stuff; it's about character.

But some actors I have met possess an intelligence that I can only dream of. It's about character, it's about behavior. They understand things about people that I simply don't see.
