class guy decision
I was a guy who needed to go to class, because I had some raw talent that I thought was identifiable, when I finally made a decision to be an actor. And yet I wanted to learn how to really do the stuff. You know, 'How do I get to be a serious actor?
crazy character unique
It's grown into a personal relationship, yeah. I'm crazy about Jerry. I think he's a unique character.
running bullying real
The real truth is that the Obama administration is professional at bullying, as we have witnessed with ACORN at work during the presidential campaign. It seems to me they are sending down their bullies to create fist fights among average American citizens who don't want a government-run health care plan forced upon them.
character play creating
Obama is a very good actor. He knows how to play it. And he is very adept at creating this ''Obama'' - this character who is there whenever the world needs something.

I play a detective, very close to myself actually.

You can get digital technology that almost is film quality, and go make little films and do everything you can to find a little understanding of your own voice and it will grow - Don't take no for an answer - Take every opportunity you can to do something.
country real war
There's a real question at stake now. Is President Obama creating a civil war in our own country?
father said
My father always said, 'Bet on yourself.'
years want littles
I have a perfectionist mentality; I want things to be right. But I've had a little duel over the years with that mentality. Because it can inhibit you.
