In life, do you ever really know if you're missing an opportunity? No, you really don't.

I have so much empathy for these young actors that are 19 and all of a sudden they're beautiful and famous and rich. I'm like, 'Oh my God, I'd be dead.'

I have an awful memory, and I have a great memory. Meaning that, if I'm trying to remember something, I can't remember it. But my recall is fantastic.

If you get a chance to act in a room that somebody else has paid rent for, then you're given a free chance to practice your craft.

The ambition, the drive, the wanting to be the center of attention, the wanting to succeed... They're all inside me somewhere.

Ultimately, all characters have some negative and positive energies. That's just how I see it. I didn't go out looking for negative characters; I went out looking for people who have a struggle and a fight to tackle. That's what interests me.

There's nothing risky in talking about your personal life. People do it all the time.
