"By 'Love' people mean a certain kind of monopoly understanding a simple fact: that the moment you possess a living being you have killed him."

This whole notion of the acting career as a monopoly where you rise to power... it doesn't really work that way. I don't ever really feel powerful in any way. It's kind of the same thing it's always been: You just figure out what you want to do and you do it.
