I'm always reading plays, and when I find something that I really want to do, then I'll make the time to do it.

Theater, because of the commitment, it has to be a great role and a great play to me. It takes a lot out of you.

I love scenes that are just emotional give and take. By the same token action sequences are great to do. They have their own unique demands and requirements. So I take it as it comes and hopefully you can get a good balance of all of that stuff.

Fortitude, determination... in a way they're things that I idealize myself and am curious about.

Acting can be a very reactive profession. Acting is a fantastic thing, and it's my life, but writing is also part of me too, so I did it and in so doing took responsibility for my own life.

My philosophy is, 'Show up, shut up, and do your job,' and if you do it to the satisfaction of your director and the public, you're likely to be able to do it again.

I don't think there is a role that I did twenty years ago that I couldn't do better now.
