William H. Macy

I feel like a lot of the young actors that are just coming up are really good. I think directors are directing better.
William H. Macy
What actors are good at doing is walking into a situation that should make you incredibly self-conscious and frightened and doing it anyway. That's the gig, pretending that you are comfortable.
William H. Macy
I love metaphor the way some people love junk food.
William H. Macy
Directors work 10 times harder than anyone else. Get paid a quarter.
William H. Macy
I love making movies, I love the differentness of it, I love writing. But I've always liked television. I grew up on television.
