Never play anything the same way twice.
Never play a thing the same way twice.
Every time, my syncopation is different, because I can never play the same fill twice. I just can't, never have been able to. Even as a Beatle, they'd say, 'Oh, double-track that.' I don't know how you do that, because when I'm in a fill I'm sort of this blackout, just this pure me coming out and I can't pure me the same, twice. So, that's that.
I've never got a part in the same way twice. I've never prepared the same way. I've never experienced the filming the process the same way.

I like things where I can do a physical transformation, and I love accents and voices, and I'm never going to play the same character twice.
It was disconcerting for the novel to seem so different when I re-read it. Of course we are a different person each time we open a book to read it again; we can never really experience it in the same way, just as we can never step into the same stream twice.
