I've been in more than 20 movies. You just do the best you can and try to make a living.

I try to steal from the best. Suck it all in. 'Taxi Driver' is really a bible for film actors, a master class. A lot of emotional power, a lot of emotional depth but it's contained and you just see the tip of the iceberg.

I had those kind of parents where I watched all of these very sophisticated movies: 'Five Easy Pieces', 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.'

I always do drama. It's just that some people laugh at it and some people cry.

You can't make a living as a playwright. You can barely scrape by.

Money is power and power gives you choice.
