I don't socialize. I'm kind of a hermit. The life of an actor can be very lonely.

Saying I was lucky negates the hard work I put in and spits on that guy who’s freezing his ass off back in Brooklyn.

[on his dwarfism] When I was younger, definitely, I let it get to me. As an adolescent, I was bitter and angry and I definitely put up these walls. But the older you get, you realize you just have to have a sense of humour. You just know that it's not your problem. It's theirs.

Animals on factory farms all face pain and fear, just like the animals we share our homes with, yet are repeatedly abused in shocking ways.

I hate that word — 'lucky.' It cheapens a lot of hard work

Any swagger is just defense. When youre reminded so much of who you are by people - not a fame thing, but with my size, constantly, growing up - you just either curl up in a corner in the dark or you wear it proudly, like armor or something. You can turn it on its head and use it yourself before anybody else gets a chance.

I like playing the guy on the sidelines. They have more fun.
