Wherever the good work is I'll go.

I never had a father figure so I never missed it.

I'm awkward around girls.

TV is a big business. In some ways, it's surpassed films, in terms of the way people invest in these shows and invest in these characters, and give up so much of their time to follow these people's stories.

I think a mantra I always told myself is, "No matter how many times somebody pitches the ball at you, if you swing every time, eventually one of them is going to connect." Being yourself and persistence are two things that became my daily mantras, I suppose.

I think I have much more appreciation for directing and movies overall versus a performance or an actor. Their body of work is more interesting.

If you have created an image of yourself at 13 and it is still with you at 17, it needs to be dropped.
