If I Had My Druthers,

I Remember Feeling The Temperature Change The First Time The Curtain Came Up, The Difference Between The Audience Temperature And The Stage Temperature. I'll Never Forget It.

I Think It's Very Important For People To Not Judge The People You're Playing. You Have To Find A Way To Love Them Because Their Story Is Theirs. I Just Don't Think There Would Be Any Use In That.

When I Look At My Career, The Bulk Of It Has Been Television, And I Love Working In Television. But There's A Speed At Which You Do It. You're Doing Seven To Ten Pages A Day On A Series, And It's Hard To Feel Like You're Doing The Detail-oriented Work That I Like To Do.

The Theater Commitment Is Hard, Especially In Conjunction With A Television Commitment. That's A Big, Long Commitment.

I Have Friends Say, "don't You Want To Have A Little You?" The Jury's Still Out On That For Me. I Don't Have A Definitive Answer, But I Do Know That I Can Look Back On Some Of The Things I've Worked On And Some Of The Things That Have Literally Come Out Of My Imagination And Be Just As Proud Of It As If I Had Created A Person. I Feel Like That Shouldn't Be Of Any Less Value. It Can't Be Because It's What My Life Is, And I Don't Want To Make It Smaller Or More Palatable Just Because Society Tells You To. If You Can Get Comfortable With Sacrifice, Then You Are Having It All.
