I had no idea of the size of my bank account as a teen, and I didn't care to know. That was my mom's job, I figured that I would just find out when I turned 18. If you can't trust your mom, then who can you trust?

An actor's responsibility is to play a character truthfully. That's their responsibility. That's where it ends.

People look to you to replace a part in their lives that they can't get back. You can't get the past back, you can't do it. We've all tried.

I don't let it bother me too much if someone doesn't like me. I just figure there's no accounting for taste. It's not me, it's my acting. It's like if someone doesn't like someone's food, they just don't like my acting.
