Every role you do is kind of a side of yourself. That's why they give you the part.

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

In everything I do, I find some of myself, or a lot of myself, and put it into the role.

In the end, it's your job to own the role, and in the end, you are playing certain aspects of your own self, even.

There is a large element of me in every role I do.

I choose roles that are not me.

I find it hard to do small roles sometimes.

When you act, you're always playing a version of yourself. You can't bring more to the role than what you are.

Every role affords me something different in the way of understanding, and that's really why you take these roles, not to show that thing that people talk about of showing what you can do - that has nothing to do with anything.

There are times when I don't take roles because I don't want to be perceived a certain way.
