I'm an actor, not a star. Stars are people who live in Hollywood and have heart-shaped swimming pools.

You go ahead. I'd rather not be shot out of a tube into a pool filled with a bunch of nine-year-olds' urine.

I've often said there's two kinds of actors. There's a more gregarious type and the shy type.

The actor becomes an emotional athlete. The process is painful - my personal life suffers.

You need some insecurity if you're an actor. It keeps the pot boiling. I haven't yet started to think about retiring. I was shocked when I heard about Paul Newman retiring at age 82. Most actors just fade away like old soldiers.

I don't think actors should ever expect to get a role, because the disappointment is too great. You've got to think of things as an opportunity. An audition's an opportunity to have an audience.
