You shouldn't change what you are in the search for success.

I listened to that voice inside me-... Everyone has an inner voice; you just have to listen to it and trust it in order to be led by it. I did that, and it gave me the ability to live a life that's true to who I am and what I really wanted.

When I started out in independent films in the early 70s, we did everything for the love of art. It wasn't about money and stardom. That was what we were reacting against. You'd die before you'd be bought.

I've always been a people-watcher, and as an actor, later, I just mined all those little details.

There's a real danger in trying to stay king of the mountain. You stop taking risks, you stop being as creative, because you're trying to maintain a position. Apart from anything else that really takes the fun out of it.

I'm a fool for a good role in a creative piece where there are really such talented writers and wonderful actors.

You know, I don’t know what the future will bring, but I’m ready for whatever comes!
