Being an actor is the loneliest thing in the world. You are all alone with your concentration and imagination, and that’s all you have.

I think there is only one form of greatness for man. If a man can bridge the gap between life and death. I mean, if he can live on after he has died, then maybe he was a great man. To me the only success, the only greatness, is immortality.
