I think it's better to burn out than to fade away... it's better to live out your days being very, very active - even if it destroys you - than to quietly... disappear.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It's better to burn out, than to fade away.
Some people seem to fade away but then when they are truly gone, it's like they didn't fade away at all.
I'm not going to just fade out, I know.
I can disappear into things very easily. But with acting, you have to be in the moment, and it gives me this incredibly fulfilling emotion: being really present.
People think retiring is fun. Well, maybe, but if you have a certain kind of fire inside, there is no end in sight.
When you do something, you should burn yourself up completely, like a good bonfire, leaving no trace of yourself.
I think one of the coolest things you can do is disappear for a while, because it gives you the chance to re-emerge. To sort of pounce out of the jungle.
As an actor, I think you should always disappear a little. I act in order to lose myself.
I faded away for a while out of necessity.
I like to disappear into a role. I equate the success of it with a feeling of being chemically changed. That's the only way I can express it.
