A lot of male actors are method actors and they become the characters which they both were.

All actors have a significant amount of vanity about work, and necessarily so. Things they will do and won't do, and I've completely lost all of that. I don't care.

There's nothing so unattractive as vanity... particularly male vanity.

As an actor, it's fun to play guys who aren't just locked into a male pattern, but a lot of guys you're asked to play are fairly macho and have a certain rigid standard they're living by.

Male actors get into production, share profit, and they don't take money at times but are involved in some capacity which is economical and resourceful. These things suit them; as they have made a place for themselves, they have command over the box office.

I think actors are attracted to the idea of other identities and concealing themselves behind some other identity.

Theater actors like to change character roles. They don't like to always do the same thing.

I think that's so strange, because they do know that we're all actors and we perform things that have not necessarily anything to do with us personally.

I suspect, for a lot of people who become actors, there's a feeling of wanting to be someone other than who they actually are.

Some actors, they have to carry this macho, very masculine element to them, but it's difficult for me to understand that.
