I have no problem with violence, I have no problem playing horrible people.

I think it's fair to say I'm attracted to playing characters who are rather intense.

I've been very blessed in my personal life and in my career and I have never been ungrateful for what I have.

I try to say something about the human condition whenever I can when I'm lucky.
live-concerts concerts one-thing
If you told me I could only do one thing, I would choose live concerts.
grateful play luck
I'm so sad that I'm old enough to play, and I'm so grateful that I am. All that clichéd things, you really do learn something if you get the luck of being able to hang around. Even if it's a rough ride, you learn.

My inner motivation is to make the world a better place; the bad guy and the good guy think the same thing.

If you stand too close to a painting - all you see are patches of color, if you stand too far back, you can't see any of the detail.
appreciate age stuff
When I was your age, I used to treat the crust like it was just there to hold the good stuff in. I used to leave the whole back end of it on the plate. As I got older, I learned to appreciate the crust.
