"...I think you can learn stillness
like with certain
painters and composers
– and I wouldn't elevate myself to that level
– but occasionally
I think actors become artists
for a few seconds.
A painter is doing something
with one brushstroke that is brilliant
but if he would add something
he is lost.
Or one note in a symphony,
it is just astonishing,
but if you had more notes next to it,
it's lost.
It is that economy
that we can learn."

"All I know is
that the camera
doesn't like acting.
The camera likes behavior."
