jobs thinking different
I think you have to have different tools for each job - you know producer is very different from a director and very different from an actor.
heart thinking gypsy
I think I'll always be a theater gypsy at heart.
thinking weekend months
And I think right now I'm just enjoying finding something such as One Weekend a Month where I can really resonate with this woman's history and her situation.
thinking trying acting
Actually I have to say when I'm acting, I try not to think about directing at all.
thinking play trying
Maybe they say they do but I don't think many actors really enjoy trying to do a Shakespearean play.
thinking differences making-a-difference
I hope that my work makes a difference because I think that's why I do it.
thinking knowing joy
I think the joy of wanting to direct is having that nervous anxiety knowing your film is about to be shown and you're sitting right there with everyone.
marine thinking sea
I always thought I would be a marine biologist because I love the sea - but considering the fact that I've always loved acting and the theater, I don't think I ever gave anything else much of a chance.
mean opportunity thinking
I mean, I like to be creative because it challenges me to try to be better than I am as a person and I hope that in some way that that makes someone else think and feel something about themselves that then has given them the opportunity to grow.
thinking violence earth
When you think about going back to the States you start to become more aware of the violence there and how we pollute the Earth more than the New Zealanders.
mean thinking track
And not to mean that I think I'm some special person, but I think we're all here for a very specific reason and once you figure out what that is then you're on the right track and we're all on the ride together.
sweet thinking essence
And I think because there is an essence of me that cares about other people and what other people think then that then makes me seem very sweet and polite.
people different imagine
I've grown so much as a person through playing Gabrielle, much less living in New Zealand and being with all of these people that I can't imagine my life being any different.
firsts type feels
I'm the type of person who feels I have to prove myself first.
