People imagine that actors are being offered everything and you are not. So things come in and sometimes there are things that I want and can't get a meeting on, or go to a different actors.

Any actor who tells you that they have become the people they play, unless they’re clearly diagnosed as a schizophrenic, is bullshitting you.

My favorite meal would have to be good old-fashioned eggs, over easy, with bacon. Many others, but you can't beat that on a Sunday morning, especially with a cup of tea.

You choose your friends by their character and your socks by their color.

Just go on . . . and faith will soon return. To a friend hesitant with respect to infinitesimals.

Be careful that the love of gain draw us not into any business which may weaken our love of our Heavenly Father, or bring unnecessary trouble to any of His creatures.

in the city at best one lives the life of others, the life of the shop, the street, the crowd, while in the country one must live one's own life.

Nothing I did where the only reason for doing it was the money was ever worth it, except as bitter experience.

To a poet nothing can be useless.

Reality television hasn't killed documentaries, because there are so many great documentaries still being made, but it certainly has changed the landscape.
