Being an actor, the less people know about my personal life, the more open-minded they can be about each role I play.
The most important thing in my life is Christ. He's more important than winning or losing or whether I'm playing or not. Everything else is just a bonus.
I don't think you go to a play to forget, or to a movie to be distracted. I think life generally is a distraction and that going to a movie is a way to get back, not go away.
I've often wondered about people that come to the profession late in life. I've wanted to be an actor since the first grade. I watched a play being performed by the third grade class, and it was... magic.
I can't play anything until I find something that connects to my life, something I can carry as my secret map or code for the character.
It is paradoxical that many educators and parents still differentiate between a time for learning and a time for play without seeing the vital connection between them.
All the things you put off, like learning to play the piano or leaning a different language? You're like, what's the point? I'm not really gonna do that, am I?
It's interesting to do other people's music - that's how I learned to play, by learning other people's songs. It's nice to delve into how other people got to where they are.
The chess player who develops the ability to play two dozen boards at a time will benefit from learning to compress his or her analysis into less time.
I love doing heightened reality stuff, and having fun with the characters I play, especially in a kind of darker way, which I don't get to do in 'Primeval' at all.
I always wanted to do a baseball book; I love baseball. The problem is that a very large part of my following is in non-baseball playing countries.
I would love to play a British character one day. My accent wavers between Scottish and Irish very easily, though.
My very favorite costumed character I've played would be Abe Sapien from the 'Hell Boy' movies. I love this guy.
I really wanted to do plays since I was a little girl. I wanted to go to Juilliard and to learn, but then I really fell in love with doing film and television along the way.
I love theater. I love sitting in an audience and having the actors right there, playing out what it means to be a human being.
I still love physical product. I still hold out for actual CDs, because in radio, everyone just wants to send you a file to play.
People already love to play casual games. But when you take a casual game and stick it inside a social network, it becomes way more exciting.
In how many lives does love really play a dominant part? The average taxpayer is no more capable of a 'grand passion' than of a grand opera.
I don't have real big aspirations to be a movie star. I would love to be on a long-running hit TV show. You end up playing a defining role.
I love the idea of playing a character that didn't over think everything. He knows what's in front of him and he has an ability to just say whatever he felt.
Writing is like a rollercoaster ride for me, an adventure. I love exploring the world through 'playing' people who are absolutely nothing like me.
