Haters never win. I just think that’s true about life, because negative energy always costs in the end.
You never know what’s around the corner. It could be everything. Or it could be nothing. You keep putting one foot in front of the other, and then one day you look back and you’ve climbed a mountain.
It’s a rare thing when you can read a script in one sitting and you haven’t looked at the watch or you’ve gone to make a cup of tea.
We all have two lives. The second one starts when we realize that we only have one.
Make love, not war. Unless you’re Loki, in which case: do what you want.
I think everyone should pursue their dreams. Whether you want to play football, act, sing, become a writer or whatever you have burning inside you as you’re growing up, you should pursue it.
Very honest, I hope. God, I don’t know. I hope I’m fun, I hope I am a good time. Spontaneous, surprising, affectionate? I hope, kind. Dancing a lot of dancing. I insist upon dancing. Anywhere. Anytime. The more dancing, the better.
Never, ever, let anyone tell you what you can and can’t do. Prove the cynics wrong. Pity them for they have no imagination. The sky’s the limit. Your sky. Your limit. Now. Let’s dance.
All acting is an act of imagination. You are simply conjuring up imaginary circumstances in your mind and responding truthfully to them.
What is the best use of my time on this planet?
There’s an Iago and a Romeo within all of us. There is that lover, and there is that sociopath.
Acting is a bit like tennis in that you can’t really do it on your own.
Nurture your own confidence and make it real; don’t pretend to be someone you’re not.
Do the work, enjoy the work, take it seriously, don’t take yourself seriously and keep your head down!
I don’t think I’ve ever been face to face with pure evil, so I don’t think I’ve ever seen it with my own eyes. But I do understand human frailty and I do understand the capacity of people to be intermittently noble and virtuous and fallible.
I try not to make plans. God always laughs at your plans. I’m going to keep the door open, and keep the page blank, and see what gets painted upon it.
The dream is to keep surprising yourself, never mind the audience.
Sometimes love really is just that simple.
Every time you consider a job, you have to check in with your inner compass and say, ‘Does this fit in with how I see what the work is for? Is this going to be something interesting and valuable to contribute to the world?’
