To be a good actor, you have to be very smart. But to be a great actor, you also have to have a streak of, 'I'm an idiot, a complete lunatic.'

To be a good actor you have to feel life and observe life.

Wanting to be a good actor is not good enough. You must want to be a great actor. You just have to have that.

All good actors are very bright. You can't be stupid and a good actor. You may be inarticulate, you may not be highly educated, but all good actors are quick-witted, some of them dazzlingly so. All you do is guide them.

As an actor, all you want to do is to work and do good work.

I respond in the moment which is what makes me a good actor.
