I don't want to be 60 years old standing on stage telling some jokes. I want my life to mean something.

You have to open up on stage.

On stage, I think I'm 35. Working takes over my whole body and I become a younger man - that's why I won't stop.

I've been on stage since I was eight.

When you're a young actor, there's this pressure to rush. But I hope to be doing this into my sixties and seventies, so I'd prefer to take my time.

I've been performing on stage since I was six years old.

I've become 40, my audience is partly the same age.

I started on the stage when I was 13 and I consider the stage my home.

You reach a certain age, and you realize, 'Wow: there are younger people doing this better than I can, and don't leave me out - I don't want to be left behind. I want to do it, too. Where are you going? I want to be part of it.'

I don't want to end up being a circus act, doing my most famous tricks when I'm 70.
