I Love To Smoke. I Wish I

You Don't Have To Underestimate Your Audience Anymore. They'd Actually Like To Laugh A Little Bit. So, The Character Came To Me And Once It's Got Its Grips In You, There's Nowhere To Go.

I Can't Stand Not Being Able To Joke Around On Set, So I Have To.

I Was Poisoning Myself With Alcohol And Medicating Myself. I Was Trying To Numb Things. I Was Trying Not To Feel Things, And That's Ridiculous. It's One Of The Dumbest Things You Can Do, Because All You're Doing Is Postponing The Inevitable. Someday You'll Have To Look All Those Things In The Eye Rather Than Try To Numb The Pain.

If There's Any Message To My Work, It Is Ultimately That It's Ok To Be Different, That It's Good To Be Different, That We Should Question Ourselves Before We Pass Judgment On Someone Who Looks Different, Behaves Different, Talks Different, Is A Different Color.

With Any Part You Play, There Is A Certain Amount Of Yourself In It. There Has To Be, Otherwise It's Just Not Acting. It's Lying.
