I'm trying to escape by forming my own kind of world. Basically, I'm trying to encourage others to do the same.
Terry GilliamI wasn't creative or theatrical. I was just doing everything. I was head cheerleader, valedictorian - it was ridiculous!
Terry GilliamI want brave people. Fearless ones. A good actor just goes out and leaps off the edge and develops wings on his way down, hopefully. That's the kind of people I really enjoy working with. Playing safe isn't much fun. I like danger. It's controlled danger, always, and that's why I hope I don't lure too many good actors down into the pits with me, because I hope they maintain their own unique talents.
