If you're going to be that kind of actor and go way out there, it's really important to take care of yourself and have a safe place, whatever that is.

I think knowing where you can generally fit is important, but the fun thing about being an actor is sometimes stretching beyond that stereotype and stretching beyond the box that people put you in.

As an actor you appreciate the security of a job. But I don't ever want to get too comfortable.

I also want the chance to work with some of the best actors in the business, because that's where you can learn so much by just being on a set and getting a feel for how they approach their role and how they work with you.

As an actor, as you grow into where you fit in the industry, you're just trying to find the opportunities, hoping they grow and you get to do more.

As an actor, you never know where the work's going to come, so you have to be flexible about it.

I've always been very comfortable in a set environment. All the collaborating going on, seeing how actors work - it all excites me.

I think the challenge for an actor is always to see which parts of you you can explore and go have fun with.

As an actor, you just want to continue to work on things that you like. You can be in this business a long time and consistently working and just be totally artistically unfulfilled.

As you get older and ease your way into being a character actor you have to be comfortable with where you are in life and career, and I'm very comfortable with what I'm doing - working on projects I'm proud of.
