You've got to trust your instincts, your judgment and trust the storytelling that came before and the quality of the acting with the emotion.

You have to be involved and relate to the characters in order to make a film that is true emotionally.

The only way I can feel comfortable being an actor is if I can find stories that I believe are important to be shared.

That's probably the biggest secret of acting: If the actor believes it themselves, they can make you believe it.

Actors sure have stories. We always have stories. At the end of our careers, all we have to take with us is our stories, and we have many of them.

As an actor, that's the best thing you can do, really take people along on a story and tell them something.

Trust the acting.

When you are a character actor they trust you will go in and give them a full character and leave.

Acting is all about honesty. If you can fake that, you've got it made.

Acting is very much like a child making believe. I'm not one to become a character, but I fall in love with the character. It's like having faith; you're going to be that person for a while.
