If you have to have a job in this world, a high-priced movie star is a pretty good gig.

My job has always been to hold a mirror up to nature.

When you try to bring a story to life, it starts in your head and you see possibilities for it, but it's just one damn thing after another.

Repertory theater is all about being part of the whole, one of the many colors in this vast palette.

As an actor I am always waiting for my luck to run out.

There's a small percentage of people who can act. There's a small percentage who get to do this for a living. There's a swath of the population that are able to keep a story in their head and fight all the battles against self-consciousness and the surreal unnaturalness of acting in a movie. The technical aspects you can learn fairly quickly.

If they could offer up a way to go to the moon that wouldn't kill you, I'd sign up.
