In a pinch, I could always get work in pictures as a makeup artist.
I have no big career plan. It is better for me that way.
I would be doing anything to avoid a 9-5 job and high heels. Lifeguard, beach volleyball player, whatever.
The good thing about radio is that it's the kind of career that really is a career with longevity. It's something you can do as long as you want to do.
I want the kind of career where I can move back and forth.
I'd have worked with an orchestra, been a chef, or a zoo keeper.
I have never been interested in specific roles.
I've never planned my career, really. It just comes along, and I do whatever comes next!
I got a lovely check today from being a writer that I earned by sitting at home. That's rewarding.
I've never consciously chased a particular kind of a film or role. I choose from what is offered.
I've had a 'Zelig'-like career. I pop up unexpectedly. I'm always kind of around.
I will take the acting work when I can get it. I am not really an actor, that's always apparent but it's work and I'll take it and am always glad for it.
If someone called me for a role, whatever it was, I'd do it.
Let's play with the career, if we can't find anything else to do
You know, it looks like I have a varied resume or a varied career, that I've made interesting choices, when the truth of the matter is, in a way I've just kind of piece-mealed a career together, you know?
For me, I wanted to be an actor without being bothered about the medium. So when the opportunity came my way, it did not really matter on which medium I am working.
It's a fun job, but actors are like vagabonds and must go where the work is.
I'm a firm believer that you don't have to pick one career path.
I am ready to work in any industry whether its Bollywood, Hollywood, the digital platforms, South Indian film, or Bengali films. Wherever I get a good opportunity, I'll be there.
I love Hugh Laurie, but I don't want to be a guy who goes to work every day for nine months of the year in a corner of Burbank. I really don't. I like doing a bit here and a bit there and strange things, and I think that's held me back.
For the last thirty years in my career I never know what I'm doing next.
I have walked away from enormous amounts of money and I have made that life I have wanted somewhat in this business. I love doing independent film, I love doing theater, I love doing studio films, and I do all three now.
Seriously, you know - I love to write. I enjoy the process; I enjoy the different processes, because writing for film and television and graphic novels is all very different. So I've never had the feeling of, 'Oh, you have to do this one thing.'
I've had a lazy career. Sometimes one film a year, sometimes none. I'm walking around in the street and doing this other thing, living, that I'm much more interested in. I just do some acting on the side.
I have no difficulty with career duality!
