I've got to give my brother a lot of credit because he's always introduced me to a lot of things and those films spiked an interest of, "Wow, this is an incredible world, how do you be a part of that?" That definitely helped me through my school years of doing theater.

I really do consider myself quite fledgling in my acting career. I've only been doing it for 10 years and that's a short amount of time, really.

I want to be 82 and doing movies with Paolo Sorrentino where people are like, "This is gold."

A lot of the time when you're doing your own work, it's all in your own head, which can be frustrating if you're prepping for something, especially an audition where it's all in your brain and you go in and no one else has seen it and you don't really know how it fits.

A challenge is always important; as an actor, as a human, it's good to face challenges and it's good to push your boundaries.

I think I was shown Pulp Fiction and Goodfellas at seven or eight. That's really bad. I think I've turned out all right; it didn't harm me too much.

People have interesting things to say and you're only going to learn from different people's experience and knowledge.
