Great risks come in long term, tremendously assiduous, very courageous study.

It was the moment I learned acting is not acting out. After that light went on, I spent the rest of my life trying to figure out how to make other people realize it.

The amount of financial and imaginative energy that's put into mediocrity is just amazing, which I find to be fundamentally offensive as a human being.

The perfection in theater is that it's over the second it's done

The simple fact of existence, of being aware that you are aware; this to me is the most astounding fact.

I know what I love about acting - and it's the creative process

But I am not going to live for ever. And the more I know it, the more amazed I am by being here at all.
