It feels like as you get a bit older, you've worked out the things that are good for your life apart from with acting.

I think in the acting world you either manage that transition to older roles, or you stick with what you've always done and then discover nobody can bear you doing it as an older person.

I'm very much looking forward to my 30-40 years of acting, and, as I get older, I'm really looking forward to some of the roles that are out there to play.

The wonderful thing about acting is that you can use all of your talents and interests in your work.

I enjoy acting now more than I ever have. I've had lots of difficult times when I was younger, but that was all tied up with thwarted ambition. It's hard being a young actor, because you don't realise until later that it's only ever about doing the work.

Acting is a youthful profession.

In terms of acting, I've been acting from a very young age. I've always loved it and wanted to have a career in acting or something to do with it.

I feel like my early experiences of acting, and I think a lot of other actors' too, are probably at camp or school plays where you get to have great range. At camp, I remember getting to play a 50-year-old man.
