I don't know what that Method is. Acting is life, to me, and should be.

Method acting is a label I don't really understand, because there's a method to everybody's acting.

I think people have a misinterpretation of Method acting, because Method acting is a wonderful thing. The thing is, if you take it too seriously, it's like religion. You start to think it's the truth. But it's not the truth. It's just a way to get somewhere.

I'm not really into method acting - the way I was taught was the good old-fashioned British way of just doing your research and getting on with it.

There are two schools of thought: There are those actors who explain to you that they know exactly how they're going to do the part... And then there is the other method, which is to have no method at all. This is mine.

I think that various styles and methods and approaches are an invention of people who don't understand the process of acting and who try very hard to label things.

Acting is somewhat mysteriously taught. There are so many different methods and systems and processes for teaching acting because it will always be an elusive art-form.

In many ways, acting is really like a science to me to figure out the human behavior of any character that I'm playing.

Acting is all about truth and honesty, and the sensitivity that's capable of transporting you.
