When you work as an actor, you've got to feel safe even in what appears to be the simplest things.
As an actor, I always feel you basically have to be able to delude yourself.
One of the fun things about being an actor is stepping outside yourself and outside of your own experience. It's challenging yourself to totally commit to something that in your core is so wrong.
As an actor sometimes you can be a bit emotional and forceful, and that's not always the way to be.
As an actor, you try to put a little bit of yourself in everything you do.
As an actor, there's always that fear. You don't know where the next job's coming from, so you say, 'I'll do that, I'll do that, I'll do that'. Your choices are not always clearly thought out, and you can end up taking mis-steps.
As an actor you appreciate the security of a job. But I don't ever want to get too comfortable.
