James Cromwell Quotes
The person is a mystery. What I'm playing is the person so I really get to tell you and show you and communicate to you who I think the real person is and that real person is me. The most important thing is to play the human being you are creating, which is my job.

I'm always turned on with people's enthusiasm like that.
