Life is short. Time is short. As we get older, time does quicken. It's long, and it's long pertaining to that thought, that the past is not done with you because you can't rid of it.

I feel like the need to want to create and make something is stronger than the difficulties are going through.

Acting is so difficult for me that, unless the work is of a certain stature in my mind, unless I reach the expectations I have of myself, I'm unhappy. Then it's a miserable existence. I'm putting a piece of myself out there. If it doesn't do anything, I feel so ashamed. I'm afraid I'll be the kind of actor who thought he would make a difference and didn't. Right now, though, I feel like I made a little bit of difference.

The drama nerd comes out in me when I'm in a theater.

Life's pretty funny when you're objectively on the outside looking at it.

Good work is the only thing that would make me feel jealous or envious.

The strange thing is I never thought I'd do films.
