The old cliché in theater is, if you’re nervous, pick up a prop, which will immediately take you outside of your mind.

Often times, being in a popular thing means that you have to compromise your own acting.

I find it very difficult to do normal things without getting approached.

I don't attribute an actor's great success to their own individual performance when it's something as collaborative as a movie.

As an actor, you are in a unique position because you’re not only memorizing dialogue but really embodying it. You naturally feel the rhythm of good writing.

I feel like when I was 13 and I had to go to bar mitzvahs every weekend. This is the same feeling. You have to put on a suit every weekend to go meet with a bunch of Jews.

If you look at the movies that come out, most of them are bad, so it's not as if achieving some level of success means you get offered better roles, because frankly they don't seem to exist.
