Acting is very start and stop.

I like time off because I also have a life outside of theater.

But today I felt different, today I forgot how long it takes to get into the skin of a character and I remembered it, because today I actually got into that skin and it felt so different.

I believe in things that move people, if the audience isn't deeply caught up and moved to either laughter or tears then I don't think it is theater.

I mean, there are times when you aren't working, but still believe that work will come.
