The purpose of my life had always been to free people from concern, like my dad... How will you serve the world? What do they need that your talent can provide? That’s all you have to figure out... The effect you have on others is the most valuable currency there is. Everything you gain in life will rot and fall apart, and all that will be left of you is what was in your heart.

The inner child runs rampant. They're just smaller, that's all.

It is better to risk starving to death then surrender. If you give up on your dreams, what's left?

But I refuse to believe that I am a better actor than myself.

I got a lot of support from my parents. That's the one thing I always appreciated. They didn't tell me I was being stupid; they told me I was being funny.

The only thing that has ever consumed me is love from time to time. Feeling like, 'What is it? How do I get it?'

Flowers don't worry about how they're going to bloom. They just open up & turn toward the light & that makes them beautiful.
