“It’s easy to actually get the ink on the page”

But somehow I’ve gotta find a way to play this.

My two kids take a lot of my focus, which I’m grateful for.

An actor always wants to sink his teeth into something.

I’ve never bought a boxed set DVD or anything like that.

In some ways, what I learned is that you can take a character and breathe with them,

The world isn’t what you think it is.

A series is a big deal, and there are a lot of people out there writing stuff that don’t know what art is.

I lay the clothes out on the floor with the shoes and socks,

On the last day of every character I’ve ever played

And I have to find a way to emotionally survive playing this.

So that it looks like the character has literally vanished. That’s the way you have to leave them.

As an actor, often you’re stuck with these scenes in which a great period of time is in between them – for example, if you do a biopic, it might be a year, it might be a decade, you never know.

You mortgage yourself sometimes.

And its up to the audience to interpret rather than you putting moral stamp on the character.

I’m only the messenger.

You know what you want to do, then you balance it against paying the rent.

People with yuan fen are destined to like one another

God made man, and then said I can do better than that and made woman.

Many a time the thing left silent makes for happiness.

Did we not hear The flutter of its wings, and feel it near, And just within our reach? It was.

Certainly, I look for different characters ’cause I always like to keep people guessing, and I also don’t like to get typecast.

I accept relationship as my primary teacher about myself, other people, and the mysteries of the universe.

When one has been threatened with a great injustice, one accepts a smaller as a favour.

I love that you can watch a film and 10 years later still be affected.
