Take in something that’s gonna inspire you to do greater things in the world.”

“The art of cinema begins with scraping the chewing gum off the seats.”

“At my audition, I had one of those anxiety visions where you do something totally crazy in your mind, just to torture yourself with the possibility, just to wonder what would happen if you actually did it.”
