care actors force
Money isn't a major motivating force in my life. Nor is my profession. There are other things that I care more about than being an actor.
mother dream work-ethic
I dream of big things. I work for the small things. If you're going to dream, you might as well dream big. A lot of that came from my mother. She was adamant about the work ethic---about how you can't just dream things.
chance be-good
I wouldn't do the movie unless I thought it had a chance to be good.
inspirational defining-moments tin
When a defining moment comes along, you define the moment, or the moment defines you.
differences making-a-difference sound
It sounds vain, but I could probably make a difference for almost everyone I ever met if I chose to involve myself with them either professionally or personally.
positive taken blow
I'm a 'what if' person. I have always felt that failure was a completely underrated experience. I have taken blows. I have had high moments. But I don't think the blows have ever hardened me. My enthusiasms are still big.
hard-work thinking work-harder
You're just as good, and if you work harder, you can be better and you can be more than you think you can.
littles vogue known
I've always known that I'm a little out of vogue.
desire increase happens
Failure doesn't kill you... it increases your desire to make something happen.
dream reality giving
I'm a big fan of dreams. Unfortunately, dreams are our first casualty in life - people seem to give them up, quicker than anything, for a 'reality.'
things-in-life want cool-things
It's such a cool thing in life to get what it is you want. Most of the time we don't, but occasionally we do.
live-life granted express-yourself
You have to decide if you're going to wilt like a daisy or if you're just going to go forward and live the life that you've been granted.
real fall hero
Real heroes are men who fall and fail and are flawed, but win out in the end because they've stayed true to their ideals and beliefs and commitments.
people broken awful
Broken people say awful things and do incredibly absurd things.
