One of the nice things about acting is that it allows you to open up to the other people within you.

To me acting is like a jigsaw puzzle. The jigsaw puzzle is of the sky and all the pieces are blue. Out of this you have to create a human being and put it together.

Acting is wonderful therapy for people. Instead of suffering for yourself, someone will do it for you.

My approach to acting is that I am totally intuitive. I read the script and I get it. If I don't get it, I can't do it.

Ultimately, the idea of acting is to understand the people you're playing, and then where they're coming from is not so mystifying. You've got to detox a bit after, though.

Acting is just common sense. It isn't hard if you put yourself aside and just do what the writer wrote.

Acting is kind of difficult to intellectualize - it's a far more visceral experience. It's really hard to be able to think about and then employ these kind of esoteric notions of this person's backstory and try to weave it in somehow. It's just kind of impossible.

Acting is all about truth and honesty, and the sensitivity that's capable of transporting you.

Acting is such a personal thing, which is weird because at the same time it's not. It's for the consumption of other people. But in terms of creative outlets and expressing yourself, it's just the most extreme version of that that I've ever found. It's like running, it's exertion.

I don't know what that Method is. Acting is life, to me, and should be.
