I'm largely interested in people who are just great actors, and they're not necessarily hugely famous.

People think actors have such glamorous lives, but the truth is actors go where nobody wants to go.

I admire a lot of actors, but I don't covet people's careers.

Most actors can't make any kind of living.

There are lots of actors out there who are hugely, hugely talented and haven't got the breaks I've had.

There's a lot of actors out there or people who want to be actors. It's unique to find somebody that, you know, needs to be an actor.

I admire a lot of actors; I think a lot of them have so much talent.

I cannot absorb living in a world where I have an Oscar for best actress and Denzel doesn't have one for best actor.

There are certain stars who are not actors. I don't want to be that type.

As an actor, it's up to you to show that you can do something else. For me, the interesting actors don't always go where you expect to find them.
