I was very much in my own world, never the popular kid. But I had a great family, a great brother and mother.
I live by the rule that you should follow your dreams…no matter what you do, you should follow your dreams
So I started to learn Russian and I was one of those probably way too eager, annoying young actor kids who was trying to change all my lines to Russian, much to the dismay of the director and Nic Cage.
I mean, if I'm going to the Oscars or something, yes, there are people that are contributing and I'll tell them what I don't like or whatever. I know what I don't like.
If you truly believe that your dreams will come a reality the possibilities are endless
I don’t think [Requiem for a Dream] is for children, but I think if you went home and looked at the video games that your kids are playing, you’d be much more shocked.
My proudest moment was when I was in high school, some jackass tried to give me a wedgy. I came prepared, I went commando. It tickled.
I never really wore Gucci. I never did.
I just think it's really important to be yourself and not trying to be something you're not.
I heard today (April 5) was the day Kurt passed away 17 years ago. Can't believe it's been that long. So grateful for his contribution and inspiration. Not sure I'd be doing this if it weren't for him. He gave us all permission to create no matter what our skill set and reminded me that dreams are possible. Thanks for that. This made me recall a short piece of film I shot when I heard they were making a film celebrating his life. I made it to explore the character and explore creative possibilities. I never sent it to the studio or to anyone but thought I'd share it now
I like Fashion but Fashion doesn't really like me, obviously.
I will wear the same thing for three years straight unless somebody, like, forces me not to. It's like, hey, I got this Gucci sweater.
Music should never be a job. It should be your hopes, your dreams and everything you believe in.
He's an innocent in a lot of ways. He's a very simple person who really doesn't have the resources or the strength, ultimately, to handle the situation.
