I'm good at my own company.

Mozart was very much an arrested adolescent.

I love to sing.

Kids will eat anything, won't they?

Don't dream it, be it.

The people on the business side in the music business are kind of different from the theatre business. I think it’s partly because there are different pressures on the industries.

I want to establish a wide range and play all kinds of parts. It’s that sort of acting career I really respect. I like to turn a sharp left from whatever I’ve done before because that keeps me awake. That’s why I want to be an actor – I don’t want to play endless variations on one character.

I’m not a conventional leading man at all and have no wish to be.

I’ve never modeled myself on anybody, but there are a lot of people whose work I really admire and attitudes I certainly subscribe to.

I like risky parts – abrasive characters the audience won’t necessarily like.
