I think Russell Crowe is a brilliant actor.
Inside I never said I wanted to do theatre or be an actor.
I was an actor before becoming a comedian.
Actors should be overheard, not listened to, and the audience is 50 percent of the performance.
I never have particular actors planned when I'm in the process of writing.
I actually wanted to be a writer long before I wanted to be an actor.
Actors and magicians are both performers, and they represent things that are not necessarily who they are.
I'm just an actor. I am nothing special.
So I'm truly an actor who sings, and not a singer who acts.
In the theater, as an actor, you're welcoming people into your house.
And to be honest, most actors are incredibly solipsistic.
In the beginning, I was actually embarrassed to admit that I wanted to be an actor.
I like to give my actors a lot of room.
Ever since I was a kid, I always wanted to be an actor.
The actor has a constant problem of personal identity.
Actors should never be important. Only directors should have power and place.
Like any other actor, I draw on life experience.
My whole family is very artistic - my uncles are all actors and theatre directors.
It takes a lot of courage as an actor to take time off for family. But family is everything.
If you're lucky, and not a lot of actors are these days, you get the chance to create a character.
There are a lot of actors - I'm probably one - who are most at home when they're on stage.
