|---|---|
| 1 | Shakespeare gives you these clues - these little pieces of gold dust, I call them. They tell you so much about the story, the character, the drive, the intentions. It's like a gift. |
| 2 | Sometimes, there's a preconceived notion of how a scene or how a work should be delivered. And I see young performers sometimes try and deliver that, and it's not really true to their voice or who they are. |
| 3 | My parents had a difficult divorce. My dad had to take a backseat for a few years, and my grandfather came in. He was also my inspiration for becoming an actor. I really respected him. |
| 4 | When you are cast for a role, it's because of everything that makes you who you are in that moment in time. No one else has that. That's a unique, powerful thing to hold. |
| 5 | If you're going to do Shakespeare, do Shakespeare. There's a reason why he's been performed for hundreds of years. His words affect people on a very deep level. He's the true humanist. That all comes through his text, his words. |
| 6 | No matter where we are or how advanced we think we are, there are elemental issues of our civilization that stories help us work through. |
| 7 | Actors are the most generous people when it comes to sharing their technique. But if you grew up in a household of carpenters, and you're making a table, everyone would have a different way of doing it. |
| 8 | Any part I do is a marriage of the words - what the playwright or producer or show runner's vision is - to how I would play it. It took me a while to get rid of 'Oh, they want it this way, so I'm going to do it how they want it.' |
| 9 | Juilliard is wonderful in that they don't pick just one way of working. They give you a palette. There is method acting. There is a lot of attention to Shakespeare and verse. |
| 10 | For reasons I don't fully understand, tragic love has a certain appeal. |
| 11 | My parents had a difficult divorce. |
| 12 | I've played Hamlet and Coriolanus, Orlando in 'As You like It' and Ariel in 'Tempest,' among others. |
| 13 | I see theater as a simple formula. Audience plus players plus story makes the play. |
| 14 | There's something about my Mexican-American heritage... I'm proud of it. |
