I started acting as a way to support myself.
I don't consider myself an actor, for me it's employment. Like the actor who's a waiter a lot, I'm an actor when I'm not on tour, in that that's a job I can do.
I couldn't have ever married an actor. They have a childishness carried into an age when maturity should have set in.
I consider acting a day job - it's not my dream; it's not my be-all, end-all.
As an actor, you're pretty much a hired gun. You are reading other people's words off of a page and doing what they want you to do.
The truly great actors, like Charlize Theron, are just like, "I'm an actor. For hire. I show up, I do my job." There's no "I'm just waiting for the inspiration." They just do their jobs. They say, "Let's go over the scene a few times and get it."
I never planned to be an actor. It turned out I could make a living doing it.
Acting's more of a business for me now.
I don't think I ever saw acting as an actual career until late.
