If you are just safe about the choices you make, you don't grow.

Some people just wanna see the world burn

I'm shy. People get confused. They think as an actor you can get up and be confident on the screen. Why aren't you like this in normal life? Why can't you act in your social life? 'Because I can't!'

I never want to feel like I've achieved my goal. It's like Chinese farmers. They never admit that it's a good season. They feel like they'll be punished.

From 18 to 22, I was alone, living in L.A. with a bunch of friends, partying.

The Oscars are a really strange concept to me, that films and acting can be competing against each other. We're not running the same race. It's like we're all doing different sports in fact.

I feel like I've never been in a film that people have liked before.
