Acting is a work in progress for me. I just try to keep my mouth shut and my eyes and ears open, especially with the people I've worked with.

One of the nice things about acting is that it allows you to open up to the other people within you.

Acting is such a huge part of my life. It really allows me to have a creative outlet and to actually be able to have an outlet to discuss openly the things that truly I think are relevant in the world, that make a difference.

It's sort of the most important thing for acting, is to listen to the person you're dealing with.

With acting, I always feel conscious of what I'm doing.

I think acting can bring you closer to yourself and help you understand other people.

I think acting is something that is within you. It's a very natural thing for me. It comes from myself, really.

For me, acting is about getting away from myself. So to look at myself is the last thing I want.

When I'm acting, I'm just worried about that piece of the pie, contributing to the whole. But when you're directing, you... get the vision out of your head and on the stage.

I was shy and a hard worker, so acting was a way to focus whatever nervous energy I was experiencing onto a goal.
