Theater is the only thing I always came back to. When I was 9, I asked my mom if I could be on TV. She was like, "Well, okay. You can try."

I love writing. I love to write, and I would eventually love to have some of my work produced.

I hate taking myself seriously. It drives me crazy!

I don't ever want to be bored, doing the same thing from 9 to 5. I've always loved pretending and being someone different.

I tried softball and soccer. I just didn't take as much of a liking to it as I did sitting in a movie theater and watching people recreate a story, and doing it myself, as well.

I always want the audience to identify with my character in some way. I mean, sometimes you'll get characters that aren't very identifiable. Sometimes you can't relate to your character at all.

I don't think I'd ever want to direct. I don't think I have as much discipline to direct as I would like to have, and I don't want my hair color to not go grey during that process.

I don't ever want an acting to be a job. I want this to be an outlet for my creativity, and something I just simply enjoy doing. I don't ever want it to become something too serious.

Life is a prison in which we find ourselves.

There's life and death in every email.

I'm not being conceited or anything, but we have a great team.

If people like to see me with my shirt off, it's enormously flattering. But that doesn't mean I'm going to take my shirt off all the time.

I am the beneficiary of a lucky break in the genetic sweepstakes.

As the farmer said, "I'm not greedy, all I want is the land next to mine.

We don't need a nation that has national identity cards.

The best way to live a miserable life is to pay attention to what other people are saying about you.

The nature of a democracy consists to an important degree in the right of the people to criticize problems and mistakes.
