It's exciting to think that something I'm involved in is touching so many people in so many cultures.

Strive to be authentic all the time. That's sort of my philosophy on life, which applies to acting.

Acting is constant exploration.

The real rub is finding that authentic self and it's not something that's going to come to you overnight.

In the Depression we had to divert corn acreage.

Get to the end of yourself where you can do nothing, but where He does everything.

The seed of every sin known to man is in my heart.

One doesn't lose a self, like a pair of gloves or a pine. We learn and change, or we harden into stone.
