Growing up an only child with a single parent is probably why I'm an actor.

Perspective is the most important thing to have in life.

Belly buttons are cool!

Today is the day you have to start believing in yourself. No one can do it for you anymore.

I must work harder to achieve my goal of not seeking approval from those whose approval I'm not even sure is important to me.

Be truthful, say what you mean and mean what you say, don't ignore the given circumstances.

I have to introduce the part of me that feels like a winner to the part of me convinced I’m a loser, and see if they can’t agree to exist somewhere closer to the middle.

You may be sensitive inside, but what I see on the outside is a soldier.

I've spent a lot of time wondering, What's going to happen? What's going to happen? I try not to allow myself to do that much anymore. I think ive gotten more comfortable with the unknown.

Negative beliefs and complexes are obstacles to success and achievement and fulfilling goals

Keeping hatred against someone is like helping him to torture you

I definitely wanted to earn my freedom. But the primary motivation wasn't making money, but making an impact.

Do not always say no. If satisfied with the seat in place and not reckless, the next 20 years you will still sit there alone

Jesus never pussyfooted

An actor should be ready to play any role within reason. For example, I think the most ridiculous thing for me to do would be to try and play Shakespeare.

The difference between now and when I played during my younger days is my drives are shorter and my short game is longer.
