JIM QUOTES

• "I'm not necessarily the most typical Texan you're going to meet."

• "Through 'Noises Off' I really felt for the first time ever what it was like to actually talk and listen to somebody on stage, I understood what it truly meant to commit to a role and believe what you were doing and passionately want, passionately need and to go for it.“

• "I find it so hard to judge a script as a whole, I really do, I can't see the forest for the trees. I may know I like it if something is really exceptional or something is really exceptionally bad maybe. Mostly it's only characters. There's either a character in there that speaks to me that I think that I can speak for or there's not.“

• "I thought I had some geeky traits for a long time - I don't think they're geeky, they're sort of old mannish – crosswords, spoonfuls of peanut butter, long walks... And not like long walks on the beach, I just like to walk like an old person towards the park or something. That's not geeky, that's sad."

• "I do think of the scenes and this dialogue very specifically in a musical way. [...] It wasn't the story that grabbed me, though it was lovely. And it wasn't even the characters themselves as far as who made them what they are. When I first saw the audition sides for this show, I really wanted to leap at the opportunity to get to execute this dialogue. And it was all about the rhythms they put in there. I think there is a musicality to any conversation in general. [...] And it's one of the ways in which, as an actor, in this show at least, I know when something is not going right. [...] Because suddenly you can't access the rhythm. And either they're about to rewrite something that's going to make it fall into place...or you've got more days of rehearsal and suddenly you're going to feel it...I frequently say, 'That scene sings like a song.'"

• "I've done so much theater, and yet I never had an experience like The Normal Heart. We could feel the reaction of the audience every night. It was visceral. It affected me very deeply as an actor. I'll never forget, as long as I live, the night New York's State Assembly passed the bill giving gays the right to marry. For this monumental thing to happen while we were doing this play about the inept and unjust ways the AIDS crisis affected the homosexual community... it was the cherry on top of the experience. It really walloped me."

• "I try to master every facet of a character in order to build a safety net for myself, so I can go on to take more risks to create someone really distinct. One of my very early teachers said over and over again: ‘What are you bringing to the party?’ That expression never left me."

• "Just keep doing what your doing and stick to your guns... It's okay to want what you want, in every way, you know? Hell, my career is much more ridiculous than my love life, don't you think? It was much more unlikely."

SHELDON QUOTES

• "I'm from Texas. Need I say more?"

• "I weep for humanity."

• "In the interest of full disclosure, I was once on a bus and had to give mouth-to-mouth resuscitation to an elderly nun who passed out from heat exhaustion. Every year I get a Christmas card from her, signed with far too many X’s and O’s."

• "I have spent my whole life trying to bring order to the universe by carefully planning every moment of every day. But all my efforts, our dinner schedule, my pyjama rotation, my bowel movement spreadsheet.. It’s clear now, I’ve been wasting my time."
