teacher years acting
When I started performing, I decided that if in five years I couldn't earn as much money acting as I could as a teacher, it would be unrealistic for me to continue on the stage.
actors engagement way
Theater is an engagement between the actor and the audience. Film is a different sort of medium. It's not immediate, but in some ways it's more involving.
thinking media liberated
We all think we're liberated when we have more of everything, don't we? That's what the media tell us.
thinking film losing-yourself
I think you can lose yourself more easily in a film than in the theater.
powerful thinking evil
I think goodness is very powerful, but often evil is made more attractive in films. It's a challenge to make goodness appealing.
saint lays my-time
I have played a few lay saints in my time.
thinking two people
Certainly, I, as an audience, am stricken with terror if I see only two people onstage. And one person, I think, is even harder for people to take.
believe thinking catholic
I was brought up a Catholic, so I suppose I have to believe in the goodness of human beings. I think we're not so bad after all.
mean thinking often-is
We all press buttons in relationships, in our dealings with people, without thinking what it really means. We all knock along without questioning what kind of situation we're in. We may often be in a very good one, but we don't even appreciate the good situations. We're lazy. Or we're scared. Or we just don't notice.
