Acting was never something I wanted to do for the rest of my life, so it was easy to walk away.

I didn't even want to start acting when I started. At least, I never thought about it.

I've acted just to get to directing.

But acting just sort of happened and I found that I loved it. It was such a challenge.

I actually started acting because I couldn't dance.

For lack of any clearer idea, I just started acting one day. It had been in the back of my head for a while, but I think in some ways I was afraid to do it, and finally I just stepped up.

If I wasn't acting, I would be trying to break into acting.

I started as a director and just fell upon acting.

I always felt like acting was something I could just do if I wanted, which was wrong.

I remember thinking, 'I can't act.' Pretending to be someone else is a terrifying thought. The thing was that, along with other people, I could create a whole world. I felt absolutely right directing.
