That's all you can do as an actor - take the best thing available.

I've just gotten to do a lot of very different things, and as an actor, that's what you want.

I really don't want to go to work every day convincing myself of what I'm saying. I want the material to make me a better actor; then I try to return the favor to the material.

I want to keep working with the best, keep going and be a better actor each time I go and dive into something.

You work really hard to make it, and maybe you get some acclaim, but then you realize there are certain limitations as an actor.

As an actor, I don't want to do something which I have already done before.

Hopefully I've gotten better as an actor as the years have gone on, but the type of work I want to do has never changed.

Really, you want to have variety as an actor. If you spend your career doing one thing solidly, people get burned out.

I want to stretch myself as an actor.
