thinking order long
I've never changed my approach to acting. I've always felt like I've gotten better. I think that all of us can get better. I feel like, in my acting, I'm better than I was three pictures ago. I think about it. I'm a slow study. It takes me a long time to grasp the material, in order to perform it. But when I come to the set, on the first day, I know the whole movie. That's why I have to start early.
mistake careers listening
I've been evolving in my stunt career Stunts have always had their place, and I have to measure them now. I've done things where, if I make a mistake, I could die. You really need to look at each thing. That usually is a mechanical failure. So, I have gone from doing everything, to listening and saying, "Maybe I shouldn't do this."
stars bumps life-is
We all have to have our north star that we fix on and go to, but life is so much about the things that bump into you.
want sometimes
What is it you want? That's a question that we all get posed sometimes internally and sometimes externally.
sports player mad
I actually play sports better when I'm mad. Some players don't play better when they're mad. They lose their sense of where they're at. I have a tendency to do better when I'm under pressure.
strong believe people
I've had moments in my life where it was all out on the table. Everything I had. I'm okay with that, because I had a strong belief that what I was doing other people could believe in it, too, if I can get it just right.
dream views people
I feel like I've been able to live a dream life, but my view of things is absolutely inside behavior about how I behave and how I count on other people behaving.
thinking play people
Some people come to you because if you're in their movie, it'll help them raise money. And some people come to you because they think you're the person to play the part.
world computer whole-life
My whole life has been instinctual for me. I wouldn't do well in the computer world.
play distracted persons
I've always been distracted when somebody is coming after me and saying, "You're the only person who can play this part."
mean people
I like being around people that mean what they say.
nice capacity wanted
It's nice to be wanted in almost any capacity.
nice feelings good-feeling
It's nice to be wanted. That's a really good feeling. I'm not immune to it.
believe thinking funny-things
I think religion is a funny thing because, when you see somebody who can really break it down, sometimes it feels foolish what you believe.
