From Nuclear Reactor to Acting Stage: How the Navy Made Me the Actor I Am Today

Eight years operating nuclear reactors, a life-changing lesson from a ship's captain, a Vietnam Marine vet who grabbed me by the collar — here's how I went from the engine room of a warship to scene study at the Beverly Hills Playhouse.

Why I Love Acting...

Meryl Streep

Acting is not about being someone different. It's about finding the similarity in what is apparently different and then finding myself in there.

Tom Hanks

As an actor I am always waiting for my luck to run out. As a young man, even if I was going to see a play or a film by myself, I didn't feel like I was alone. There was something that was unfolding up there that brought me into it. And I recognised that.

Denzel Washington

Acting is just a way of making a living, the family is life.

Cate Blanchett

It was only when I realized how actors have the power to move people that I decided to pursue acting as a career.

Christian Bale

I find what I do for a living really funny. I mean, acting is kind of a hilarious thing for a grown man to call a job. It's got to do with putting yourself in other people's shoes and seeing how far you can come to truly understand them. I like the empathy that comes from acting.

Joaquin Phoenix

Acting is real important to me. I love it, and it's something I care about.

Leonardo DiCaprio

I just really love doing what I do. I know every career is fleeting and there will be time periods when I don't get the opportunities that I'm getting right now, so I am taking advantage of them.

Nicole Kidman

I love acting, but it's much more fun taking the kids to the zoo.

Anthony Hopkins

I think acting is about empathy. It's about understanding others, understanding yourself, and being able to step into someone else's shoes.

Judi Dench

I love acting. It's a passion. I can't imagine doing anything else.

Frances McDormand

I'm trained in the theater, and acting, for me, is about the imaginative life I create for myself, not about basing it on something real. I think that whatever I create becomes the reality for the audience.

Daniel Day-Lewis

The beauty of acting is that you can be anyone; you can experience anything.

Emma Thompson

I believe that actors and anyone in the arts should be outsiders, so that we can say whatever we want and hold a mirror up, as Shakespeare says, to what's really going on in the world. We shouldn't be within the pale of polite society. It's a disaster that actors have become so respectable.

Tilda Swinton

For a lot of actors, there's a sort of code of honor around playing something other than yourself, which I just don't have. I love feeling like I'm - I won't even say acting out, but performing in some deep seam of my consciousness or my family's consciousness or my past.

Al Pacino

The biggest reward for me is still the work itself. I still enjoy acting. When you start too young, you think it's all about fame and money. But the great thing about acting is that it's a living.

Viola Davis

I like the way I feel when I'm on set. I like the challenge of finding new ways to express emotion.

Natalie Portman

I just always wanted to be an actress. I was always in awe of the ability to tell stories and inhabit different people.

Benedict Cumberbatch

I love the anonymity of being an actor. I like that you can be completely immersed in a character and disappear.

Brad Pitt

They hand me a script. I act. I'm here for entertainment. Basically, when you whittle everything away, I'm a grown man who puts on makeup.

Anthony Hopkins

I don't think you can become a great actor unless you know how to live.

Daniel Day-Lewis

Acting is a way of dealing with life. It's an exploration of who we are.

Idris Elba

I've always had ambition, and the acting was successful and put my name on the map, but it was never the plan to stop there.

Anthony Hopkins

The thing about acting is you have to be willing to expose yourself.

Daniel Day-Lewis

Each character is a chance to explore a different part of the human experience.

Gary Oldman

I like to disappear into a role. I like to be somebody else.
