I've had to deal a lot with my own sense of intimidation at meeting famous people - especially actors but really any famous people.

Be very clear as to what your dream is. Nowadays it is fairly certain that 90 percent of all actors really just want to be rich and famous as the solution to all that ails.

I have so much empathy for these young actors that are 19 and all of a sudden they're beautiful and famous and rich. I'm like 'Oh my God I'd be dead.'

Dates with actors finally just seemed to me evenings of shop talk. I got sick of it after a hile. So the more famous I became the more I narrowed down my choices.

Young actors often don't think of the consequences of doing nudity or sex scenes. They want the role so badly that they agree to be exploited and then end up embarrassing family friends and even strangers.

Actors are one family over the entire world.

I was never the ingenue so hopefully that'll make it easier to age and still work. I know a lot of actors who are really dissatisfied with where they're at even though some of them are huge stars and I feel like 'Oh my God you're at the top.' Something interesting will come. It always does. I have faith.

I was brought up the Mexican way where actors are paid very little and every part you take is an act of faith. If people respect that then great.

I just can't say enough about the actors having faith and trust in the writers and the writers having faith and trust in the actors.

Religious faith depends on a host of social psychological and emotional factors that have little or nothing to do with probabilities evidence and logic.

I've learned to think in terms of having a long career. Actors can have very long careers that last until the day we die but there will be moments when you'll feel like you're a failure or when you're disappointed in yourself.

But all actors go through the process it's hit and miss you have achievement and failure.

Acting is not a mystery. There's nothing that I know that other actors don't know. We all act we're all actors we all know the same thing. The only thing that separates us is experience.

Music and language are a vital element. We as actors and directors offer it to people who want to experience it. Sometimes the actual meaning is less important than the words themselves.

I like directors who have worked as actors. They know the experience.

I had great faith in Irish actors that they'd be hip to the whole theatre thing and they are. I had no illusions of coming over here as some kind of big shot. It's been a learning experience for me too.

You experience the films through the actors so they're all locked into your imagination in some kind of layer of fantasy or hatred or wherever they settle into your imagination.

Some of us are interested in directors but really the vast majority of us are interested in actors. You experience the films through the actors so they're all locked into your imagination in some kind of layer of fantasy or hatred or wherever they settle into your imagination.

You know young actors say all the time 'Should I use my own life experience?' And my response is 'What choice do you have?'

Working with big actors and realising that they were just normal people who've got an incredible talent was just a great experience.

Normally I love to go to the movies and when I see a character portrayed by different actors at different ages it kind of pops a little bit for me. It brings me out of the movie experience. Now we have the technology to cure that.

I think it makes people in the Pentagon kind of nervous to know that chemical agents and environmental factors could cause so much damage in terms of what may happen in the future.

A variety of factors contribute to the price of gasoline in the United States. These factors include worldwide supply demand and competition for crude oil taxes regional differences in access to gasoline supplies and environmental regulations.

More and more companies are reaching out to their suppliers and contractors to work jointly on issues of sustainability environmental responsibility ethics and compliance.
