And I had known Peter O'Toole before in London. And I'd liked him very much. And the thought of being in a picture with him was very challenging to me. And he was playing the starring role. (Bull Deborah)
I liked acting. I liked - well, it was creative. (Bull Deborah)
I mean, a Mexican boy couldn't be anything else but an Indian. And why did you take the name of Quinn, they used to say to me. Hey, you're an Indian, so I played Indians. (Bull Deborah)
I just don't think that I could be the kind of actor I want to be and not be honest with myself. Honesty is very important to me as an actor and as a person. I didn't even think about it. (Bull Deborah)
I know that I'm capable as an actor. (Bull Deborah)
I wasn't dating anyone. I was hyper-focused on acting. So I didn't bring a guy to the prom. I was the lone gay person as far as I knew. (Bull Deborah)
It makes me proud, and it makes me scared. More than anything, I want to be an actor and I want to keep working, and I think there's a danger in being perceived as a poster boy for something. (Bull Deborah)
It's upsetting that it is such a big deal. I wish it weren't an issue all the time. It's funny that people say it's a departure, because I've been acting since I was a child. I've played three gay roles out of hundreds. (Bull Deborah)
Suddenly playing the charming bad guy was my thing. (Bull Deborah)
Today some actors get a little full of themselves about what they're doing. (Bull Deborah)
Well, for Blow I had to age from 20 to 60, starting out in shape and then later putting on fat pads. (Bull Deborah)
I like working with actresses, and I like women a lot, not for obvious reasons, but just in that that there's so much about what they bring to the scene that keeps it so interesting. Their instincts are so different, and they never explain them to you. (Bull Deborah)
One of the greatest things I learned from Altman wasn't even stylistic or artistic... it's the way he treats people and how inclusive he is with each member of the crew. (Bull Deborah)
The idea is that Jodie Foster is with her child and she's going back to New York from Germany with her husband's body. She loses her child on a plane, and you think, 'How can that happen?' There's no record of her having brought a child onto the plane, and the captain is left wondering about whether she's telling the truth. You never really know if she's telling the truth or not. (Bull Deborah)
That's why Ged is perfect for an actor because he's the hero, but not a classic hero in the sense that he does good all the time. (Bull Deborah)
I like to use all of myself, and acting wasn't doing that. (Bull Deborah)
I love acting. (Bull Deborah)
I include Jimmy Caan with those other actors out of respect, not because of his process, but because I think he's an amazing actor. (Bull Deborah)
I'm not sure that acting is something for a grown man to be doing. (Bull Deborah)
It is for the latter that I always wanted to be an actor: to play characters who are always on the move. (Bull Deborah)
An actress is doing a real balancing act-trying to be married and have children, so you don't go out drinking with a bunch of guys till 2 a.m. Women are a little more tender. (Bull Deborah)
