Quotes

  • Acting is a profession that if you're not in it wholeheartedly, you're not in it. You must be committed.
  • Every human being is given special gifts and by living your life you strengthen the gifts and pass them on. I want to be noticed eventually because I'm a good actor. That's a real goal of mine: to be respected as a person and an actor, not just because I'm short.
