The energy released by it is enormous and it becomes quite addictive, the power between the audience and the actor.
I take the theater seriously in that I loathe it, I'm bored by it.
I find it incredibly tedious, hate that it murders itself with its own conservative pomposity.
Acting doesn't have to be threadbare misery all the time.
I can hardly decide what plays I should be in.
There is a great relief in experiencing the worst vicariously.
I think America becomes more disgruntled by going to the movies and having an endlessly good time at them.
I just think that things should be allowed to run their course, and not turned into a Disney ride.
One moment cannot be the most important.
My mother taught me to read.
Irish people are educated not only about artistry but local history.
There's something about the Irish that is remarkable.
To be honest I live among the English and have always found them to be very honest in their business dealings. They are noble, hard-working and anxious to do the right thing. But joy eludes them, they lack the joy that the Irish have.
There once was a demographic survey done to determine if money was connected to happiness and Ireland was the only place where this did not turn out to be true.
I would love to write the story of my upbringing in Ireland.
I enjoy making films, but my heart is in the stage. Every night you have to be on. There's no second take.
Honestly, I get more recognized for 'Three Men and a Little Lady' than 'Harry Potter'.
A relationship is sent by God and accident.
I'm not afraid of chaos and I'm happy talking to strangers. I really love not knowing where I'm going.
I loathe bad theater and most theatre is very bad because it's repetitious, unexciting and, dangerously, it is sometimes praised for those things.
