I find I'm most challenged by things I really care about, because I really want to do them well. It causes quite a bit of anxiety. But that very thing you're afraid of is kind of like a blessing in disguise. If you didn't have that fear, you wouldn't have the other side - courage and bravery, positive emotions.As an actor, you get used to those fears, and you're almost happy when they show up. It makes you learn your lines and prepare.

Hope's interesting, isn't it? I can't turn hope off, it's hopeless.

I'm a pretty basic surfer.

Play doesn't have to be a frivolous thing. You may think of a Beethoven symphony as something serious, but it's still being played. I think Oscar Wilde said that life is too important to be taken seriously.

There's a bit of the kid in me.

I kept dreaming of a world I thought I'd never see, and then....one day....I got in!

The wonderful thing about acting is that you can use all of your talents and interests in your work.
