I Don't Know, One Out Of Every

I Have A Bag Full Of Stuff That I Give To People When They Come To My House.

A Home Life Where It's So Full Of So Many Rigorous Ideas About The Way Things Should Be, This Word "should," I Think Is Absolutely Toxic To Children. It Hurts Their Personalities, It Hurts Their Points Of View In The World, It Hurts Their Ability To Be Open And Caring And Curious. An Element Of Allowance In A Family, Is, I Think, Really A Positive Thing.

I Haven't Had Such An Overwhelmingly Positive Response As I Have From The Normal Heart Directly To Me. And It's A Blessing. If This Is It, If I Have A Piano Dropped On Me Tomorrow, Then I Would Go Down Thinking, 'you Know What, I Did Okay As Far As My Career Goes, Because That's A Gift. That's Rare.'

You Reminded Me Of A Quote That My Acting Teacher Stella Adler Wrote In Her Book ['the Art Of Acting'], Which I Asked Her To Sign: "the Young Actor Feels Some Greatness Inside Themselves That They Want To Give Back To The World." That Resonated With Me, But I Didn't Really Understand What She Was Talking About Until Much Later, In The Way You Surmised That My Struggle To Become An Actor Was From Being This Kind Of Introverted Young Boy.

I Became An Actor So I Didn't Have To Be Myself.
