I definitely feel more complete than before. There's a void you have when you don't feel you've found the other part of who you are so I'm in a different place now and that's nice to experience.
When a novel has 200 000 words then it is possible for the reader to experience 200 000 delights and to turn back to the first page of the book and experience them all over again perhaps more intensely.
Film is such a bizarre vehicle for acting. It's such a bizarre experience. I don't think you ever really get familiar with it. If you do get familiar with it you're probably not that good anymore.
I was an only child. I've known only children. From this experience I do believe that the children should outnumber the parents.
That's one of the benefits of working on big budget films. You work with people who have a lot of experience and you get to learn a lot.
In my experience there is only one motivation and that is desire. No reasons or principle contain it or stand against it.
Acting can be a narrow and isolated experience because you only examine your particular part.
Making movies is a very different experience in a lot of ways. It's difficult when you're used to owning the copyright and having a landlord's possessory rights - I rent my plays to the companies that do them and if I'm upset I can pull the play. But the only two directors I've worked with are pretty great.
To me the job of the artist is to provide a useful and intelligent vocabulary for the world to be able to articulate feelings they experience everyday and otherwise wouldn't have the means to express in a meaningful and useful way.
I have the ordinary experience of being anonymous when I'm in an airplane talking to air-traffic control and they don't know who they're talking to. I have a lot of common experiences.
People were being so mean as a result of my ability - a gift really. So I think that's what makes me fight harder to provide an option to aspiring kids or artists. I wouldn't want anyone to go through what I went through... to see a little girl or a little dancer experience such unnecessary rejection.
The fact that I am a writer comes from the experience of being cut away from my roots and living in Venezuela where I couldn't find a place for myself for years and years.
I enjoy writing but I much prefer the experience of having written.
None of us feels the true love of God till we realize how wicked we are. But you can't teach people that - they have to learn by experience.
The printed page conveys information and commitment and requires active involvement. Television conveys emotion and experience and it's very limited in what it can do logically. It's an existential experience - there and then gone.
I felt alienated by the experience and decided to stay away from corporate employment.
No matter what his position or experience in life there is in everyone more latent than developed ability far more unused than used power.
It's wonderful to be in love. And it's definitely wonderful to cuddle and have sex and get to experience life with somebody. But it's OK if you don't find him and you're 24. You can find it someday.
My parents had an experience of life that is as opposite to mine as you can imagine.
I wouldn't go up on a stage now if you paid a thousand dollars for one minute of acting. It's a nasty experience. You're up there all by yourself. You're so damn exposed.
Boredom is the dream bird that hatches the egg of experience. A rustling in the leaves drives him away.
For me I'd rather have an intense experience than not.
I guess my experience with some stuff is kind of abstract.
These are tough times and under this Tory-led government many people in Manchester are suffering and getting left behind. If elected I will use all my energy skills experience and knowledge to stand up for our communities and get things done for the better.
