It's not like I'm the most famous person in the world

Anyone who devotes time and attention to what makes people tick, to me, is a smart person.

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.

I was immature the way I handled the business. I saw myself as a tribune of the people.

I've seen people with a tremendous amount of educational background in the field not turn out to be terribly good actors, and I've seen people with no education in the field turn out to be people that I admire quite a bit

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.

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