I find that kid actors are great reminders of the simplicity of acting. As you get older, you can sometimes complicate things a little more. You can become too aware of, 'Okay, this is the scene emotionally. This is where we need to be. We've got the climax coming up.' You can start to analyze it too much.

I can't stand the sound of fingernails on a chalkboard!

Doing anything worthwhile takes forever.

In life you don't regret the things you do, you regret the things you don't do.

I've never heard my dad say a bad word about anybody. He always keeps his emotions in check and is a true gentleman. I was taught that losing it was indulgent, a selfish act.

I'm an actor who believes we all have triggers to any stage of emotion. It's not always easy to find but it's still there.

We have far more ability than we give ourselves credit for.
