“ Sometimes people call me a success for all the reasons that make me think I'm a failure. ”
The enemies of acting are mood and attitude and other general homogenized disruptive entities. Whereas acting is about action - doing - and unless you can figure out a way to craft in an imaginative reality to which you don't submit, you're going to be out of control. You'll flip out. The job is to be surprised.
~ William Hurt
Being famous is not something that would make me feel successful - unless one was striving for mediocrity.
I am not a famous person at home - I'm just a guy here. I'm a father, I'm a companion, I'm a human being. I am not a public figure in my house; I am not a celebrity. I am not a famous person to myself - I am just a guy.
But I am not going to live for ever. And the more I know it, the more amazed I am by being here at all.
