Most child actors go through that. Unless you can transition into an adult star, your career is over.

I feel bad about a lot of the movies I see that teach kids that if they do bad, they'll win.

Hollywood people want to build you up and make you famous only to knock you off you're the pedestal they built for you.

Everything is a rejection of you, not your product, or your script, or a cosmetic. It's you.

At the time I was growing up in the business I was very well established within the industry as a child actor and as I grew up and turned into a teenager there was less and less work.

Do not trust the person of spite; though you have loved and tamed them, the snake will bite.

You've got to hang on to who you are, what you are. Don't let anyone take it from you.
