I really love being a character actor.

I love being an actor, especially in movies, because you get to be someone else.

I always knew I wanted to be a character in the movies. When I was growing up, I had to have a lot of surgery, and I spent a lot of time recovering at home and in the hospital. Watching movies took me away from my own problems and gave me a total escape.

The truth is that I've always wanted to be an actor, ever since I was a child. I used to see these English movies which were shown to us in our school every Saturday, and then I used to enact the hero's part in my head.

I always wanted to be an actor. It's something I always secretly wanted. You know, I had the experience of being picked on as a child, and I would tell people, 'You're gonna be sorry when I'm famous!' And then I learned after they kicked the stuffing out me that you don't say that out loud.

I was never really a character actor - I was a leading man who was always cast as a character. I wanted to be Jack Nicholson or Jean Gabin.

I always wanted to be an actor.

I never really wanted to be an actor. And that was the beginning of it, I began to write things down and eventually became a writer on a television show.

I became an actor because I enjoy playing a variety of different people rather than playing one person for the rest of my career.

Ever since I was a kid, I always wanted to be an actor.
