It Helps Me Chill Out And Focus.

I've Always Had A Really Developed Sense Of Justice. As A Child, I Would Rotate My Dolls' Dresses For Fear That They Might Come Alive At Midnight And One Of Them Would Always Have The Best Dress On. Whatever It Was That Made Me Worry About My Dolls I Suppose Has Paid Off In My Career Because, Really, An Actor Is All About Empathy And Imagination. And Those Are The Cornerstones Of Activism.

I Think Looking At Your Own Life, On- And Offscreen, You Can Motivate Anything, Or You Can Delude Yourself Into Anything.

I Feel It's Easier To Sit In The Backseat And Go, "oh, Yeah, Let's Go There." You're Not Worried About Getting To The Destination. But The Guy Or The Woman Who Has To Get You To The Destination Is Worried About A Lot Of Other Things, So My Job As An Actor Is To Try As Many Things As Possible, Be As Open As Possible, Listen, And Keep My Heart Open.

I Always Think That The Difference Between Film And Theater Is Like The Difference Between Masturbation And Making Love. Because, In Film, You Just Have To Get One Moment Right; You're Practically By Yourself. And In Theater, You Actually Have To Have A Relationship With The Audience.

You Have To Take Away The Idea That Something You Do Is Right Or Wrong. I Don't Think There's A Right Or A Wrong; I Think There's An "it Works" Or "it Doesn't Work" For The Whole. And That's Why You Need A Director You Trust, So You Can Just Keep Throwing Out Suggestions.
