It's just like with people. You're going to get along better working with them - human or equine - if you ask politely rather than demand that they do things.

With any character I have played there’s infinite possibilities for how they might behave, depending on who they are talking to or how they react to things.

Saying you are a patriot does not make you one; wearing a flag pin does not in itself mean anything at all.

In 2016 we are faced with a particularly bizarre and unappetizing choice as regards the two main political parties' presidential candidates, in my opinion.

There are people that grandstand and seem to be publicly politically engaged because they like the attention, more than because they're genuinely concerned about the world. But I don't think that's the majority.

I have no idea what 'method actor' means.

I think if you don't say something it's lying by omission. I personally think it's immoral.
