Working with a great actor is really educational.

To be a good actor you have to feel life and observe life.

One of the great perks of being an actor is you're only as smart as the job you're in, you know, and you're only as informed as the job you're in, and you do become an expert, and you read all the books, but then there's a part of, like, you move on.

Every time I work, it's an educational process because I learn by watching other actors. My career is always going to be an ongoing study.

Studying acting has been personally enriching because it has taught me to take the time to imagine what someone else's life experience might be like. To look deeply at how our pasts and the circumstances of our early childhoods mold us as people.

Part of the reason of being an actor is you like playing other people's lives and exploring all the psychologies in that and the emotions.

I had no real experience studying acting; I came to it having done other things for a living for many, many years, and I have this gigantic respect for experience and technique.

One of the great things about my job is I get to do all of these things that I may not experience had I not been an actor.

As an actor, you tend to live in a really small world, which is not very healthy. It is enriching to go to new places, meet different people know and learn about things which you didn't know about.

I started to study, because I knew I had to learn a lot about myself as an actor; you can't act the same as you did as a child.
