Sometimes there are certain things that you gotta grow into. Sometimes, for some actors, they know it spiritually at a young age. Others need to grow into it. Elias Koteas Read Quote
I can’t stand to watch anything that I’m in. I tear it apart. The worst thing you can do is leave me alone and let me watch what I’m in. It’s abusive. Elias Koteas Read Quote
I know that I’m a quirky guy, to say the least. I don’t know how easy I am to cast for a network. It hasn’t been because I haven’t tried. But am I dying to be on a TV show? No. Elias Koteas Read Quote
I play guys who are willing to go really far. If the dung really hits the fan, I don’t know if I could walk the talk. But anyone who isn’t willing to die for his convictions isn’t worth living. My characters, no matter how demented they are, they have their convictions. Elias Koteas Read Quote
