Ice is an interesting subject for contemplation. They told me that they had some in the ice-houses at Fresh Pond five years old which was as good as ever.

Each character I play I approach differently and separately. I think Marigold is a simpler character for a sweet little movie, and I’m excited to be part of it.

Do not pursue what is illusory – property and position: all that is gained at the expense of your nerves decade after decade, and is confiscated in one fell night.

As an artist, there’s a sweet, jump-starting quality to [marijuana] for me. I’ve often felt telepathic and receptive to inexplicable messages my whole life. I can stave those off when I’m not high.

So if ever I need some clarity, or a quantum leap in my own consciousness, or a quantum leap in terms of writing something or getting an answer, it’s a quick way for me to get it.

I just adored Peter Medak, the director. He’s such a character, but he was so much fun. Some directors come in and they truly get angry about things.Peter was still in a fantastic mood. He’s a delightful person. He threw a big party at the end of the pilot, which was so sweet. And his wife is an opera singer. He’s just a very warm, crazy beautiful individual.
