perfect people world
If I could only get people to rub my belly for good lucky and then throw money in my fountain, it'd be a perfect world.
nice people actors
I'm just an actor, but if the extra part of it is that I'm helping people or people are being helped by the virtue of what we're doing, then that's just a really nice added extra.
positive numbers people
It is a weird feeling to have people go, 'Hey Chris' like they know me. But, number one, 99 percent of my experiences have been really cool. People couldn't be nicer and more positive.
agency people way
We went online to surrogacy agencies. We interviewed lots of people - and I have to say, with all due respect, some of them were freaks. I was very leery of the process the whole way through.
jobs believe people
It ain't easy to break out of a mold, but if you do your work, people will ultimately see what you're capable of. Too often, people find it easier to make assumptions and stick with what they believe. They put you in a place and it makes their job easier. The good people constantly search for something different.
above halo head power walk wonderful
I don't walk around with a halo above my head or any kind of sainthood. But there is a power - a beautiful, a wonderful byproduct.
We're real fortunate to have such a unique cast.
clear consider looking met ours themselves worked
There was a friend of ours who worked with a girl who had said she would consider being a surrogate. We met her and right away she was awesome. We were looking for someone who could take care of themselves and it was pretty clear she could.
looking moves paper piece sign weird
It's always been kind of weird to me because when you give someone an autograph,you're looking down at a piece of paper and once you sign it the person moves on.
black-and-white life-is straightforward
Life is never straightforward or emotionally black and white.
art mistake choices
I take this art very seriously and passionately. I love what I do. You can't help but grow. That's not to say you don't make mistakes or make bad choices, but that's part of the art. Painters paint bad paintings
reality trying spoons
If you try hard enough, you can bend the spoon; you can shift reality.
mother daughter wife
My wife has brought great beauty into my life. And my daughter has brought me nothing but joy. Those qualities were greatly lacking.
theatre actors hips
I had great faith in Irish actors, that they'd be hip to the whole theatre thing, and they are. I had no illusions of coming over here as some kind of big shot. It's been a learning experience for me too.
