I have to admit, I never watch television; once in a while I'll see things, but I grew up without it. I had a father who said, 'I hate television'; it came into being when he was a kid, and he didn't have it, so he didn't think I needed it.

When you're a little kid, growing up, most of us know what's right and wrong. Our parents teach us that discipline.

I think every actor should be always grateful when they work.

I was raised in the theater and I started acting when I was nine. To me, the idea of being an actor was about playing different characters and being a chameleon. That's why I was in the theater.

There's this great fantasy of going to work, every day, and getting to play out what people think my life is, as a successful actor.

I was the little kid growing up. I wasn't picked on because, honestly, I was fast, so I could run away from the bullies.

I grew up with a dad who hated television, so we had to sneak television. It got ingrained in my head to never follow a show that religiously.
