school kids thinking
I think a lot of young kids at school are very conscious of trying to keep credibility in case they kind of stand out in a crowd and get bullied by trying to stay cool and stuff. And my whole thing, all the way through school, was I was just a goof... I didn't care.
character thinking play
I'd love to play a gangster but I think people might say I looked a bit too young and cheeky to play a character who'd just blown someones head off!
kids thinking flip
I could always flip between emotions and be available to suddenly do something new. I think it's a part of playing, and you hang onto it when you're a kid.
thinking actors done
I think if you're an actor, then you can work on stage - but if you've never done it before, you're going to have picked up a few things that you're going to need to change when you're working on stage.
real thinking ideas
I think we are all interested in end-times ideas and also in the current climate that we are all living in, where money is a little harder to come by, things continue to get expensive; gas prices are not too far from people's heads. There are more and more people. Human society's going to have real problems.
character thinking years
I think if you've held onto a character for several years and then you're getting rid of that character, it's going to be traumatic.
thinking worry busy
Not being busy is something I worry about, but I think work begets work.
thinking way geek
I think everyone's a geek in some way.
passion thinking people
The term 'geek' for me is like you having a passion, interest in something that is unabashed and you don't care if people think it's not cool. You think it's cool and that's your thing.
anyone boxer sure thinking wear
They're boxer shorts. Make sure you get that right. I don't want anyone thinking I wear anything else.
business concern degree either major minor motivated
Probably a concern to either a major or minor degree with most actors if they're really motivated to kind of make a significant difference in the business is the 'pigeon-holing' thing.
extending imagination
Being an actor's about imagination and you have to keep extending your imagination.
people remembered
I would like to be remembered as someone who could make people laugh. I would just like to be remembered really.
again applied cold days drives freezing glue hours miss sitting stand trailer work
I won't miss having to stand for two hours at 4:30 a.m. and having freezing cold glue applied to my feet. I won't miss two-hour drives to work or long, long, long, days sitting in my trailer waiting... waiting... waiting. I won't miss glue in my ears. But I would do it all again tomorrow.
