When you hear your own words quoted out of context, it sounds as if someone else is speaking.
As an actor I speak other people's words in the public forum. So for MY words - not a character I've played - to be spoken or quoted in a public forum just feels strange and third person-ish. Revealing. Or maybe I simply thought to myself: "What the hell could someone learn from something I said?" Does this make any sense?But you did take the bulk of the statement so that I didn't think to myself: "Why did he only quote that one sentence..." or "That's not what I meant, he left something out". It made sense. And I appreciate the anonymity.
