If I were to play somebody who ran a fish and chip shop, I would not work in a fish and chip shop for three months. Staring at chips is not going to help me in my performance.

I don’t see the risk, I enjoy performing stunts, and I don’t get scared.

I think being a movie star is about whether an audience can watch you and care about you.

I remember once having to stop performing when I thought an elderly man a few rows back from the front was actually going to die because he was laughing so hard.

I don’t care who I play to, as long as they enjoy listening to what I play.

I think from a very young age I always have this desire to perform.

You’re playing worse and worse every day and right now you’re playing like it’s next month.

As far as performance, the roar of the crowd, the smell of the greasepaint no I don’t feel that.

The great actors are the luminous ones. They are the great conductors of the stage.

Your audience gives you everything you need. They tell you. There is no director who can direct you like an audience.
