There is going to be a hundred thousand doors slammed in your face before one opens, so feel ok about taking rejection.

It doesn't matter what medium I perform, I just love to perform in general, if it's good work.

I'm 100 percent Irish by birth, grew up Italian, and yet I constantly get cast as playing Jewish.

So the characters that I choose, I like to make sure that they have depth and that they have some sort of bite. It's more fun.

There’s a fear that grasps each individual and what they think is right and what they think is wrong.

It doesn't matter if a critic pans or praises my movies, I am only concerned about that one audience member and what their experience is.

Honestly, there was a time after I came out that I really did not think I would be working again.
