Experience
  • You can't dodge them all. I got hammered plenty of times through the years. But you just get up and keep playing. I can tell you from experience, though. Sometimes it hurts like hell.

  • It is often difficult to watch yourself onscreen, especially 60-feet high. As an actor, it is an uncomfortable experience.

  • I've learned through experience of playing different characters, some of whom were jerks, that when you play a character who is pretentious or obnoxious, in any way, it's important to knock them down a peg.

  • I have a mess in my head sometimes, and there's something very satisfying about putting it into words. Certainly it's not something that you're in charge of, necessarily, but writing about it, putting it into your words, can be a very powerful experience.

  • A city building, you experience when you walk a suburban building, you experience when you drive.
