You've got to keep your finger on the pulse of what your audience is thinking and know what they'll accept from you.

In my entire career, I've never cried, consistently, through a movie, ever.

The fans of our industry are extremely savvy. At the end of the day, they understand the business is a work. It's entertainment, nothing more.

Success at anything will always come down to this: focus & effort. And we control both.

You will go one on one with the Great One!

Any athlete or any actor who's preparing for a long time to step on a stage or step on a field or step on a movie set, who suffers an injury right before you're getting ready to perform or to execute - it is a massive challenge that's thrown your way that you didn't expect.

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