What I love about making movies is that it's a collaboration. It's one of the most rewarding things, to create something and have someone show you something that you didn't see, and vice versa.

You can change your fate. You can sit back, or you can go after your life and all that you want it to be.

I think what's great about that relationship between an actor and a Director is you have to really blow away all your thing, the safety things that you put up.

Growing up in a lower-income family, you don't have the resources to make ends meet and you have to find creative ways to get by.

My job is about playing people. And I think once you lose touch with people, what do you play?

I don't believe in the death penalty. I believe that there are other people as we speak right now in prison, wrongfully accused, who could serve such a fate. That is injustice at its greatest.

I can remember crying on the set of Beverly Hills 90210 after being released from the show a few years ago
