The whole thing is you don't want to be pigeon-holed as 'Oh, he's a guy in a wheel chair. He's very fragile. You better watch out.'
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I think any actor in their right mind is afraid of getting pigeonholed.
Most men are fragile.
When suffering knocks at your door and you say there is no seat for him, he tells you not to worry because he has brought his own stool.
It is a question whether, when we break a murderer on the wheel, we do not fall into the error a child makes when it hits the chair it has bumped into.
A round man cannot be expected to fit in a square hole right away. He must have time to modify his shape.
He used to sit on my lap. I was sort of ambivalent about that. He was surviving any way he could.
I was talking to a guy who was holding his 18-month-old daughter with the only limb he had left, and he had a smile on his face. I thought, 'I'm not even a 10th of this man.'
On the dance floor, as much as you say, 'Ladies, you are the car. He is the driver. You can only go where he takes you,' they still try to be in control.
As an actor, you know, I love not being pigeonholed, which is great. No one really knows who I am. So that's a positive.
He who does not tire, tires adversity.
