Profession

选择表演作为职业只有两种情况:一种是你永远失业，永远失业，不管你挣多少钱，你仍然会失业;你没有权力。

If what you do is being threatened as a profession, that could be scary. But that's the same reason why I walked out on stage many times after receiving death threats. I couldn't live without doing what I wanted to do. So at the same time I have to be willing to die for it.

Being an actor means asking people to look at you. I guess I accept that. But it's a profession in which the job is to show another world and other people. You may access it through bits of yourself, and your imagination and experience, but actually, in the end, you're not playing yourself.
当演员意味着让人们看着你。我想我接受了。但这是一种职业，其工作是展示另一个世界和其他人。你可以通过自己的一点一滴，你的想象力和经验来获得它，但实际上，最终，你并不是在玩你自己。
