I've got to challenge myself more, and not listen to anybody else, and not listen to any media or bloggers, but just listen to myself. I've got to push myself. If I don't believe I'm growing, and I believe I'm just coasting, then I've got to get off the train. If I feel I'm growing, I have to keep going. It's a long marathon.

I want a movie to be satisfying for an audience. That sense of having to get it done, no matter what cost, is what I like.

I do believe any hero is a person that can be knocked down. A failure isn't a person who gets knocked down; a failure is a person who stays down, and to me, the great heroes take the beating, get knocked down and stand back up again. Perseus is defined as one of the great heroes in literature, so you gotta take that on board.

Most actors go, I read the script and fell in love with it; I fall in love with the directors.

All you need in any industry is someone to back you, and Jim Cameron backed me up.

The high mountains are barren, but the low valleys are covered over with corn; and accordingly the showers of God's grace fall into lowly hearts and humble souls.

Each job you have has it's own challenges. One of the great things about my job, is that each film is a different journey.
