The beautiful thing about acting is that you can just dive into the character, strip yourself of everything, and just get in there and perfect your craft.

What you learn from studying acting is that you have to have the courage to just make strong choices.

The great thing about acting is that, until you're dead, you can do it. There are aspects to it that as time goes on you hope you get better at, and there are a lot of things that I'm excited to explore.

I had no real experience studying acting; I came to it having done other things for a living for many, many years, and I have this gigantic respect for experience and technique.

I love acting, and it was really important to me to give it a real shot.

The wonderful thing about acting is that you can use all of your talents and interests in your work.

There's so much to learn about acting and performance in general... I mean, acting is a very complex art, and there are a lot more theories and methods and techniques to it than I think anybody would think.

I've never tried to learn the art of acting. I have been in the business for years but I still can't tell what acting is or how it's done.

I trained at the Lee Strasberg Institute at Tisch, which is a huge foundation for young actors. They teach you their methods and give you the sense that acting is much more tangible than most people think. I think there's a mysticism of what acting is, in the fact that it's this ungraspable, spur-of-the-moment thing that nobody can understand.

What I love about acting is that you are exposed to so many different things. Horse-riding, sailing, travelling to amazing places.
