Acting is an uncomfortable business because you have to make yourself vulnerable.

If someone has an ability to impress an audience there's a tendency to be tempted into doing just that.

I used to have trouble in front of an audience. I felt uncomfortable.

Whenever you do anything public, you open yourself up to be criticized.

The only time the private parts of someone's life are relevant is when they're affecting public performance. And just because someone is a public person doesn't mean that any part of his or her private life is open to scrutiny. If someone is doing his or her job, you have to have enough empathy to understand that we all have personal problems.

I was brought up with considerable discipline, and I was taught it wasn't proper to display certain very private emotions in public.

If you feel uncomfortable about something, just because you're in the public eye, it doesn't mean it doesn't hurt when people say things.

Every person who speaks or writes for the public will make an occasional faux pas, and sooner or later will write or say something inappropriate.

People, photographers, people in the press can sometimes be inappropriate.
