past thinking ideas
My idea in terms of managing a narrative, or in thinking in my creative life, is that you could easily argue that the past, the present and the future all occur simultaneously, and if you can postulate that, then you're not strictly bound to a linear narrative.
directors actors prepared
I fear other actors who are not prepared. And I fear directors who are afraid.
actors want quitting
As an actor I want to do as many takes as I can. I wanna shoot the scene... or shoot the shot 'til they make me quit.

The world's not a very comfortable place if you have a nightmare to face.
imagination creative important
All my life I've had the privilege to make my living with my imagination, and the most important thing has been to see my creative life grow. I was educated to do that and have lived accordingly.

Normal people with normal problems can be hilarious.
military successful patriotism
If military movies were automatically successful we'd make nothing but military movies. But seriously, patriotism is one thing that all Americans have in common.
people want directors
I've worked with some very good directors and some very bad ones. I learned a great deal from both. From the bad, untalented people, you learn what not to do. And when you work with very highly talented people, you want to emulate them.

As a child of West Texas, I identify with Hispanic culture every bit as much as I do North American culture.
actors born looking-for-work
I'm an actor, I'm always looking for work. I was born to do that.
stupid thinking way
Ethnic stereotypes are boring and stressful and sometimes criminal. It's just not a good way to think. It's non-thinking. It's stupid and destructive.
target want gas-stations
I want out of each and every one of you is a hard target search, of every gas station, residence, warehouse, farmhouse, henhouse, outhouse and doghouse in that area.
