After looking at Salomaybe, I don't know who the hell the real me is. I think it's closest now to the real me because for one thing, I'm used to this.

I like, for instance, 'Serpico.' I enjoyed playing Serpico because Frank Serpico was there. He existed. He was a real life person and I could - I could embody him. I could, you know, I could work and get to know him and have him help me with the text, the script and become him. It's almost like a painter having a model to become.

The play is the source, it is orchestrated with words. In a movie, you are not dealing with as much as that. There are machines and wires. When you're acting for a camera, it keeps taking and never giving back.

I've had very deep relationships that lasted for long periods of time with people - you could almost call them marriages, even though I didn't marry. But it was costly.

I learned to wrestle, I learned defensive fighting at a young age, because when someone hit me, I would throw up and fall down.

When you're reading some of the great plays, when you do what I call taking up with a writer, something happens.

Responsibilities are relative. My responsibility is to a character in a script, to a part I'm playing.

There are a couple of times I would've liked to have married. I think I made a mistake, especially once.
