I've loved every minute of every hour I've spent doing theatre.

My profession is about as far away from growing up in southern Illinois as you can get.

I almost never give interviews. It's not because I want to play hard to get. It's just that I never seem to have anything interesting to say.

When I go to see something I'm in, or my friends are in, it's like a home movie. When I just go to the movies and don't know anyone in it, then it's a real movie.

I'm happy whenever I'm in a rehearsal room. I've always gotten all my energy and creativity in there.

I was too practical to major in theater. Acting - what was I going to do with acting? There was no future in it.

I like to play a wide range of characters. The more they're unlike me, the better I like it.

I was an office secretary for a long time. A good secretary.

I don't like working in front of a camera.

The drama's laws the drama's patrons give. For we that live to please must please to live.

When you are in unrelenting, excruciating and debilitating pain that never goes away for years on end, your life is over.

No one I know of has ever had this experience-where you had to sit and wait and wait for a DNA test to come back just so you can write the last page of the book.

The moon of Mahomet Arose, and it shall set; While, blazoned as on heaven's immortal noon, The cross leads generations on.

The bastards murdered half my family.

The Bank and the media continue to propagate the story that the global elite wishes to be told: that the number of poor has declined by 24 percent in those 15 years [1990-2005].

If you are stone, be magnetic; if a plant, be sensitive; but if you are human be love.
