I think I've had a fairly meandering career. Because I did start so young, I think that I've always chosen my parts based on what's interesting to me and what I think would be challenging or fun, or someone I've always wanted to work with or a place I've always wanted to work in or a topic.

For years, I hated myself. I covered the mirrors in my house. I literally couldn't have a mirror in my room.

Every night I fell asleep to a different Beatles album. So I'm very familiar with the Beatles; Ringo was my favorite Beatle until I grew up and then changed. I made the switch over to George Harrison just in time to regain my cool.

Remember who you are. It's really okay to be who you are.

Doing films as an actor, you spend maybe 40 percent of the year doing your chosen profession. If you are on a successful TV show, you spend 80 percent of your year doing the thing you love.

I mean, I sing. But I don't think I'm a good enough singer to do any kind of musical.

Everything, I think, about acting is based on imagination.
