Even on the worst days I am without a doubt still happier doing this than I am doing anything else. On acting.

An actor's responsibility is to play a character truthfully. That's their responsibility. That's where it ends. If they choose to use their reach and accessibility in order to further something that matters to them, that's their choice and that's great - but it's not for anybody to choose it for them.

People look to you to replace a part in their lives that they can't get back. You can't get the past back, you can't do it. We've all tried.

Kids are brought into show business because they are cute and see truth and they're very bright. But there's a sense of doing it because you want the adults to be approving of you. You want to make them happy.

People have good and bad days.
