I have many good friends, but I tend to keep to myself anyway. It's odd, doing things and having no one to share them with.
I tend to head for what's amusing because a lot of things aren't happy. But usually you can find a funny side to practically anything.
There's a difference between solitude and loneliness.
I like the ephemeral thing about theatre, every performance is like a ghost - it's there and then it's gone.
Speak your mind, even if your voice shakes.
