“I mean I think children love the idea that there are different viewpoi...” — Samuel West Quote

“I mean I think children love the idea that there are different viewpoints and different words for things and different worlds. And the more that they pretend to be other people, the harder it is for them to hate them and misunderstand them when they grow up.”

“If you play a part that's been done before, on stage for instance, you feel like you're carrying a torch and staggering under the weight of it for a bit and then passing it on to somebody else.”

“I am a coward, basically, but one of the things about acting is that you are always putting yourself through yet another test.”

“We all live in different worlds and situations, so what's the issue with representing that on screen?”

“Like every writer, I'm drawn by unlikely juxtapositions, precisely-dated and once-only collisions between people from different worlds.”

“It's no longer possible to think of the physical and digital as two different worlds.”
