“Character is doing what you don't want to do but know you should do.”
“What do you want to want to be, anyway?""I don't know; I guess what I want to be is a good Catholic.""What you should say"--he told me--"what you should say is that you want to be a saint.”
“Don't do what you want. Do what you don't want. Do what you're trained not to want. Do the things that scare you the most.”
“Love what you do and do what you love. Don't listen to anyone else who tells you not to do it. You do what you want, what you love. Imagination should be the center of your life.”
“Discipline is doing what you don't want to do so you can do what you want to do.”
“Sometimes, when I have to do something I don't want to do, I pretend I'm a character from a book. It's easier to know what they would do.”
