Meaning
The line reads as a note about resisting typecasting and keeping work alive for oneself. It can be taken to mean that variety matters more than repeating a familiar image, and that acting should still feel like a challenge. In a career where people expect one kind of part, choosing something lighter or more open becomes a way to stay curious.
