I didn't want to play by what rules are in Hollywood.

I'm a long way from being evicted [at the age of 14], but I'll never forget it. I'll never forget the feeling. I'll never forget my mom crying and I'll never forget the thought I had: 'Well the only thing I can do is just go build my body,' because the men who were successful that I knew of - Stallone, Arnold, Bruce Willis - they were men of action.

Now go back to Supercuts and get your $5 back jabroni!

Steven Spielberg has this great quote: "Moviemaking is always about noise. There's so many voices that you've gotta listen to. But you've always got to pay attention to the one voice that's in your gut that always tells you it's still not good enough."

There is no substitute for hardwork. Always be humble and hungry.

I like the idea of working in different genres and transcending genres and hopefully finding success, and ultimately make movies people like.

I can usually get the right connection with the crowd and I don't have to be jumping off ladders.
