On playing Willy Loman: “I knew that it would challenge me like no other role. It is the American Hamlet. And now that I’ve done it, I’m going down the list of all the roles that I want to do: Richard III and Walter Lee (A Raisin in the Sun). I want to do Astrov (Uncle Vanya) again. I’m ready to do my Othello, and look forward in the years to come to do a Lear. I’d love to do Invisible Man if there was an interpretation of that. I still have fear, but now I have courage.” – The New York Times
