Most actors can't make any kind of living.

I'd like to, when it's all said and done, say that I have at least a few stories that I feel proud of.

If you're trying to please everyone, then you're not going to make anything that is honestly yours, I don't think, in the long run.

I prefer the smaller acting than big histrionics. It's about reacting and looks, which is often underestimated.

I don't have a BlackBerry or whatever you call it. And there is something to be said for being isolated and out of phone range, because you can fall into a habit to such a degree that you don't even realise that you've lost something: silence.

Those who have the power and should be the most responsible are often the least responsible.

It's true that I have a wide range of interests. I like to write and paint and make music and go walking on my own and garden. In fact, gardening is probably what I enjoy doing more than anything else.
