You know I grew up watching the TV series The Rifleman.

I've never reacted well to other people telling me what to do

You don't do characters that are the same as you, otherwise why bother to act?

Shooting clay targets is a very cleansing experience. It's very relaxing. It takes a lot of concentration. It's also very social, since you're usually shooting with friends. You can talk and forget about almost anything else that's on your mind.

Unless you treat failure as part of the journey, you're never going to get anywhere.

It is scary for an actor when you get hired as a lead. No matter what the plot is, it is your job to do something interesting enough to make them want to get inside the lead character's head.

Which to this day is a source of enormous guilt, because I left with three classes to go in the business school to sign a contract with 20th Century Fox.
