“I'm not in this for the achievement. I'm in it for the illumination. That's how I choose my roles, that's how I attract roles, it's a very spiritual process for me. And it's the only way I can continue, and stay interested. The acting...it's really a vocation.”
The speaker views acting as a spiritual vocation, seeking illumination rather than fame, choosing roles that align with inner growth and purpose, making the craft a conduit for personal evolution.
