Paul Schofield said something like, 'If I'm not acting in a play, I don't really exist.' Those weren't the exact words, but he meant it's only when I'm acting in a play that I've got something to say about the world. And then why should I talk, when people can come to see it? ↗

I dabbled a little bit in acting in high school, and then I forgot about it completely. And then at about 25 I went to a class.

I think they were just happy that I was doing something. ↗
