![“Make everything you do as different as the last thing you did. It allows you to do things like Dexter… And you can really scare them that way.”
[ Q&A ]
Woman: I’m sorry about my laryngitis.Lithgow: It’s an outrage.
On acting and why it’s difficult for two actors to be married to each other. “It’s an incredibly self-absorbed activity. The mood swings, my God, it’s like a Chekhov play.”
On his strengths and weaknesses. “My strength is that I come out of the theater. My weakness is that I come out of the theater.”
On what he does other than act. Paint, watercolor, read, entertain kids, make CDs for them, tennis, “lose weight”
On when he realized he wanted to be an actor. “If you hear enough laughter and applause at a young age, you’re going to be an actor. You’re doomed.”
