I choose parts because I don't want to be embarrassed when the movie comes out. What if my friends were to see the movie? What if my niece or nephew wandered into the theater and saw the movie? I don't want to be too ashamed of it.

My plays have been strange from the beginning, and they never got unstrange.

It's obviously a characteristic of human beings that we like to feel superior to others, but our problem is we are not superior

I never grew up thinking, 'One day I will play so and so' because I wasn't expecting to be an actor at all.

I think the whole system of education would change if I were in charge and had the ability to make changes. I don't think I would keep Princeton exactly being Princeton.

In real life, every person is the leading man or woman. We don't think of ourselves as supporting or character actors.

I don't see that many plays, and for me, musicals are rarely pleasing.
