"I know as actors our job is usually to shed our skins, but I think as people our job is to become who we really are, and so I would like to salute the men and women who brave ostracism, alienation and a life lived on the margins to become who they really are." -- Felicity Huffman, who plays a pre-op transsexual in "Transamerica", from her Golden Globe speech earlier this week.
Actually, Felicity, your job as an actor is to pretend to be something your not, to memorize a script, and - ultimately - to help put asses in the seats. That's pretty much it.
