I learnt the theory of movement, which I still teach sometimes. I was very, very ambitious to learn a skill.

I think I've learned the difference between the things I can control and the things I can't control. And hopefully, by doing the things I can control well, I'll have more favor in the other category.

I have learned how to better handle things as they come.

I had to learn, really, how to rein in my energies and discipline myself. And I found it very very useful. I rebelled against it at first, but it's a good thing to have.

For me, becoming a man had a lot to do with learning communication, and I learned about that by acting.

I learned to discipline myself to do things I didn't want to do.

I learned to walk on my own legs, to dive so deeply into a role to forget that I'm acting.

I began to do this thing I do of giving myself a class every day, and trying to experiment and push further. I don't mean to say I knew everything, because I didn't, but I would do what I knew and then push beyond that and see what else I could find.
