I'm a public figure. It's up to me to take the initiative to explain things. It's my responsibility.

Well, I mean, I'm very much a pragmatic person.

I'm very pragmatic.

I'm really pragmatic. That's my reality.

I'm not a Pollyanna; I'm a pragmatist.

I only work with actors who take full responsibility for their characters.

I take responsibility for myself and what I do now.

As an artist, I used to think that my responsibility was to do good work. But I had to learn from the '70s on that being a public figure presents another aspect of responsibility.
