I'm Always Interested In The Unexpected And Know That Things, Especially In Show Business, But In Life Generally, Are Inevitably Fleeting To One Extent.

I Like Little Collaborations Where The Other Thing Happens, Where It's Half-baked Or It's Improvised, And Let's Develop It Together. "what Do You Want To Wear? Do You Have An Idea?" All That's Fun To Do, And I Like That, But It Doesn't Take Anything Away.

In Fact You Can Begin To Discover And Investigate Whether You Are An Actor Or Not, Whether You're In My View, Qualified For A Life In This Profession Or In This Endeavor By Checking Yourself Out And Acting Every Day, Getting Plays And Scripts And Getting Together With People And Divvying Up The Parts And Acting In One Way Or Another, Or Writing Things.

Involve Yourself Every Day. Work Hard And Figure Out How To Love Acting All Day, Every Day. It's Getting Into A Made-up Situation And Making It Good And Making It Real And Just Playing, Just Practicing And Playing. Like The Musicians That I Played Piano With: They Never Expect To Be Rich Or Famous, But They, For The Sheer Joy Of It, Play Every Day, All Day.

It's An Important Fact Of Life, War.

My Friend Ed Begley Goes Fishing. It's A Little Smelly To Me, I Don't Like It So Much. I Like To Eat Fish, But I Don't Like To Catch Them.

I'm A Humble Student Of Acting Myself And Part Of That Studentship Is Teaching.

It's Nice To Play A Character That Has A Soulful, Dependent, Close Relationship. It Must Mean My Character Is Interesting In Some Way.

The Movie Feels To Me Like A Real Work Of Lovely Art.
