To be a good actor you have to feel life and observe life.

To be able to work with actors who are doing such good work, not only makes it easier for you, but it makes you better.

I've come to this conclusion: What makes a great actor is great need. A huge need of acting.

To be a good actor, you have to be very smart. But to be a great actor, you also have to have a streak of, 'I'm an idiot, a complete lunatic.'

One of the great perks of being an actor is you're only as smart as the job you're in, you know, and you're only as informed as the job you're in, and you do become an expert, and you read all the books, but then there's a part of, like, you move on.

Good acting comes from finding the essence of a character.

As an actor, you hope to find roles that are challenging to you as an artist. Then if you are truly blessed, you will find that it also carries a message that you can impart to your audience.

Being an actor is just like being any other sort of self-employed person - we're all just happy to have a job in the first place, but we also thrive off the uncertainty of it.

An actor's job is to embrace emotions and situations that in real life we spend all of our time running away from.
