Quote of the day

We knew so little about eachother. We lay mostly submerged, like ice floes with our visible social selves projecting only cool and white.

I think it's vital to have something outside your acting to keep you rooted in the real world, and help you fill the vacuum. If you have nothing else, it can be unhealthy. For me being a Christian has been invaluable: it simply means acting isn't the centre of my life.
