At the very end, I think I’m still doing as an actor what I wanted to do as a diplomat slash politician, which is keep on exploring human nature. That’s how I see it. And I think that you as a journalist, me as an actor, other people as anthropologists and sociologists—what we’re all doing is trying to deal with human nature and trying to get answers. I think that as an actor it is probably the most poetic way I’ve found to keep doing that research.
