I try to avoid typecasting by doing different roles.

I tell people, 'It's just like a cliche, but it's true: In Hollywood, dreams can come true.'

Know what you want to do, because if you don't know what you want to do, you'll get stuck.

China has been a textbook case of how the government did just enough intervention to increase penetration, but the reality is that it isn't going to work for all countries in the same way. Culture always plays a role and you can't necessarily take what worked in one market and automatically make it work somewhere else.

I believe that teachers committed to the community are the ones who deserve to earn the top dollar, a starting salary of a quarter million dollars a year.

A lot of kids think they can just go to Hollywood and become an actor or actress. It's not that easy. There are millions of kids who come out here wanting to act. So, you have to have a plan, and you have to stick with that plan, because it's not going to be easy by any means.

I don't like it when someone can look you in the eye and lie to you, or pretend that they're more than you.
