I had real plans for my next decade and felt I'd worked hard enough to earn it. Will I really not live to see my children married? To watch the World Trade Center rise again? To read - if not indeed write - the obituaries of elderly villains like Henry Kissinger and Joseph Ratzinger? ↗

I like villains because there's something so attractive about a committed person - they have a plan, an ideology, no matter how twisted. They're motivated. ↗

You have to love the guy that you play, even if you play the villain, you've got to love him. ↗
