I feel like I express myself, as an actor. Whatever the character is put in front of me, I try to bring truth to it, whichever way it lands. I try to bring as much truth to it and make it as believable as I can. I think that’s the job of an actor.
I try not to take on the weight or the burden of it. Once it’s on the paper, I try to leave it, because I want to surrender to what I’m supposed to write about.
There’s nothing like real forgiveness, a deep-down forgiveness where you don’t hold any grudges against people. I forgave for the things they didn’t know and for the things they didn’t know to do.
You know, people at Wal-Mart are standing there with their uniforms on. I feel like I’m putting on a uniform to do a movie. I don’t feel like it’s dressing in drag.
…when you put on your shortest dress, please leave some mystery in it. That’s the difference between a miniskirt and a ho-skirt. A ho-skirt shows your Frisbee. A miniskirt shows just enough to cause some mystery. What these young women lack is mystery.
I think, you know, the people that have seen my work, I think it speaks to the possibility of getting better, and, I’m sorry, I’m still on the last caller.
I have this huge, huge fan base of people who’ve never seen a Broadway show, but I think it’s a great introduction to what Broadway is because my shows are not that. I think that if you’re getting people to go to theater then somebody should be celebrating that.
