I think there are parts of myself in every character I play.

When I'm creating a character, I don't see it so much as playing someone else as just playing a specific part of myself under certain circumstances.

You don't realize how much a part of your character is part of yourself until you are no longer playing that character.

Whatever character you play, it gives you the chance to expose another side of yourself that maybe you've never felt comfortable with, or never knew about.

I play characters. I don't think I really have a persona per se. I don't play the same guy every time. I show up, you don't know what I'm gonna do. I like it that way. I've intentionally tried to do it that way. I think that's what's interesting.

You have to play your characters, not like them.

It's much more fun to play something you're nothing like than what you are... It's much easier to hide yourself in a character.

The character I play is a wonderful compilation of things I hate about myself and things I love about myself and things that I've invented to make her even more interesting than me.
