I grew up as a really sick kid; I had really bad childhood asthma and was at home all the time in New York.

With drama, you need to be laughing, in between takes, 'cause you're going to those recesses of your soul and those dangerous parts. Normally, if you're not an actor or some crazy artist, you don't feel the need to run around in those areas. You keep them separate because it's painful.

It doesn't matter what you look like really though, it is who you are that matters of course.

In life, I'd much rather have people laughing at me than booing me.

You can bring truth to anything, whether it's a dance movie or an incredibly poignant indie drama or a really broad comedy. As long as you show up to play, I don't think you can go wrong.

When you're an actor or any kind of artist, you use your life as something to draw from in every experience.
