Poetry is above all a concentration of the power of language which is the power of our ultimate relationship to everything in the universe.

As an actor there is room for a certain amount of creativity but you're always ultimately going to be saying somebody else's words. I don't think I'd have the stamina skill or ability to write a novel but I'd love to write short stories and poetry because those are my two passions.
