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

What has emerged as I've gotten older is simplifying the characters I play, unless the role calls for something that is arcane or ornate.

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.

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 like to understand, very specifically, what it is I'm seeing, and where it is and where it's going, and a lot of that is just hitting the mark and following the dotted line. But, that's good too because there's concentration and focus that's involved in that.

I have a penchant for playing God's clowns. Actually, I played Nijinsky once, and he used to call himself God's clown.

Your primary tools, as an actor, are observation and imagination. You can pretty much get everything you need from that, and you do. It brings back that element of pretend.
