I think I'm a little more daunted by when the machinery of the play is really huge.

You have to escape to survive, as you must survive to escape.

Fifteen years ago I killed my sister.

I would hope that the staffs at juvenile detention centers and reform schools are carefully chosen so that there is a community of support and hope.

Sometimes when I'm directing, the stage manager will have a good idea and that's okay with me.

I've never really felt good at the parties, but I have enough friends now that I feel social, I used to feel very antisocial, but I think the theater helps.

I grew up eating hamburger helper, macaroni and cheese, and drinking lots of milk, and looked at lots of cows; but I feel like a New Yorker now, I've lived here for sixteen years.

We only have so much time.... Time will kill you – it really will.

Whenever I've been in rehearsals, it's really fun, there's always laughing.

I find auditioning to be a very illusive process, where actors come in with this really big result with no process, so it's a lie already at work.

Convert your time into useful assets

My head bows before the thing you mention.But my heart doesn't speak that lan

The Bible is not interested in precisionism unless the context indicates that precision is particularly important.

It became apparent to me really fast that I wasn't going to be able to make a living and pay my bills playing on Broadway.

I hope you're ready, because I'm about to tell you the story of my life. More specifically, why my life ended. And if you're listening to these tapes, you're one of the reasons why.

You do show after show after show and get them done and on the air. Television devours material. We work a minimum of 12, 14 hours, and often 15, 18 hours a day.

There is only one way to receive intellectual respect, and that is to earn it. A degree doesn't mean anything, as there are too many maleducated morons running around with them to impress anyone.

Nothing can be believed but what one sees, or has from an eye witness.

If you stop building stars, which we never do, you wouldn't be in business.
