I'm an actor. I'm trying to be the character and do what they're doing.

To watch how lovingly your children parent their own children is to know profound achievement.

I haven't had an orthodox career.

And I realized that sometimes the greatest triumphs in your life come in on little cat feet and sit on silent haunches and it's up to you to see it before it moves on.

I haven't had an orthodox career, and I've wanted more than anything to have your respect. The first time I didn't feel it, but this time I feel it, and I can't deny the fact that you like me, right now, you like me!

Never, ever, have I felt really accepted in Hollywood.
