There's a great, one of the great old English actor, Paul Schofield, I...
I'm going to destroy this quote, but it was in his obituary.
And he was in this great movie when I was a kid, Man for All Seasons.
And he was in Redford's Quiz Show.
And he was a great English actor.
And when he died in his obituary, there was an interview with him.
He said, you were performing King Lear at your local church.
Why weren't you doing it on the West End?
You know, because you were healthy enough.
They were asking, why are you doing it?
He was doing a play at a local church near him.
He said, I really like walking to work.
And I realized that I really have always only performed for whoever it is that made me.
And I can do that anywhere.
I can do it in a Robert Redford movie.
And I can do it in my local theater.
It's the same action, and it's taken me a lifetime to realize that it doesn't.
And he's like, and I'd like to walk to work.
