I don't drive an Escalade; I've never lived on a mansion; I live in a townhouse. Even with my internet business, when I was making just shy of a million and a half a year, I lived in the same house.

My goal in life is to bring to the screen really believable depictions that make you think, "Damn, I have to look within myself."

Being able to engage my creativity in a way that makes a difference inspires me more than anything.

One of my biggest lessons in life is, we heal at the speed of our forgiveness.

More times than not, my pain stems from an area in which I've been least authentic. The second I identify the source - the area of my inauthenticity - I begin to feel better. This allows me to take complete responsibility for my emotional discomfort, and the awareness enables me to move beyond the blockage. I become energetically unstuck, allowing the pain to pass through me.

I had a grandmother who would always encourage me to learn about theater and film.

I always try to get as personal as I can with the characters that I play, which is a reason why I don't play a lot of characters.
