I Prefer The Smaller Acting

If You're Trying To Please Everyone, Then You're Not Going To Make Anything That Is Honestly Yours, I Don't Think, In The Long Run.

To Be An Artist, You Don't Have To Compose Music Or Paint Or Be In The Movies Or Write Books. It's Just A Way Of Living. It Has To Do With Paying Attention, Remembering, Filtering What You See And Answering Back, Participating In Life.

Being An Actor, Imitating To The Point Of Inhabiting The Lives Of Others, May Simply Be A Way Of Continuing To Do What I Learned To Do As A Boy - To Travel, Mentally And Physically.

Can You Join, Ask Sincerely For Affection Without Sweaty Hand Of Expectation, Understanding And Accepting If It Never Is Given?

My Job As An Artist, As I See It, Is To Understand And In Some Cases To Take On Various Ways Of Thinking About People And The World That Are Different From My Own, Sometimes Radically Different.
