When I first started out, I was a bad actor.

I've been really terrible in a lot of things because I learned by making mistakes. That makes you a different kind of actor, because you have to figure out for yourself what you do.

I always thought I was a pretty terrible actor.

Every actor has to make terrible films from time to time, but the trick is never to be terrible in them.

In my first few years as an actor, I took one terrible TV job after another. But even as I laughed off my awful roles and made fun of myself to friends, my work made me cringe - I dreaded anyone's seeing it. I was crushed that I wasn't doing anything I was proud of.

I've done a lot of TV, but not film.

Sometimes I do movies that aren't any good, or sometimes I might not be any good in them, or sometimes they don't do very well.

I have been in movies that I thought I wasn't very good in.

I'm a terrible actor. I'm still learning. When I first started, I wish I knew then to trust myself more, really. I was in a terrible panic in the early part of my career.

When my films don't do well, I'm hurt and surprised. It's discouraging.
