I think it's very hard to go into the same business as your family when you're an artist.

The worst feeling in the world is giving a bad audition.

Even in success, you're going to be constantly rejected.

Being an actor is definitely not the hardest job in the world - it's definitely a first-world problem to have, but I'm not very good with rejection. I constantly question whether or not I'm suited for this business, because it is your job to get rejected.

There are problems everywhere, of course, but you can only see those certain problems when you reach a certain level. So I try to think of those problems as, "This is a sign that I'm having success, that I'm also having issues with this."

As you get older and you progress in your career, you start to want to have more control over things and you have ideas.

For years while I was working as a waitress, all I wanted to do was get on a TV show. You think, "This will solve all the problems. I'm making more than 400 dollars a week; I don't have to worry about money ever again," but it's just not true.
