As America, we aren't the country that we should be with Donald Trump as president.

Success is being artistically fulfilled and happy. You can't control how people see your movie or how much money it makes...and the same thing with music. When I'm writing a song or I'm in the studio, those memories, that's epic.

I write music because I love it. Sometimes more than anything in the world.

I’ve never taken time off from being an actor. This is the kind of career I’d be so happy to do until I die. I always joke to myself that I want to have a postmortem Academy Award Nomination.

Apparently, the world is not a wish granting factory.

I have a lot of weird interests, but everything I do is artistic.

I don't want to just be an actor my whole life. I mean I do want to be an actor my whole life but not only an actor, I want to be an artist.

I think it's important I stay connected to every part of my personality. I play basketball. I rock climb. I paint. I'm a little bit scattered, but it's so I can convincingly play all these characters.

It's so sad, you get less starstruck when you start realizing that it's not a big deal.

I love Marlon Brando and James Dean. That was when it was all about the star and the script. Nowadays, everything has to be action-packed.

As an actor, you want a director who makes you feel comfortable in a place that you can really create and try a lot of different things.

Most actors nowadays are models turned actors. That's why a lot of young actors are terrible. You have to learn how to act. It is not something that you can just do.

I don't believe in spending money lavishly, now that I'm making money.

We need to also act out, and anything that [Donald] Trump does, anything he's trying to do that we don't agree with or anything this country is doing in general that we don't agree with, we need to protest, we need to make our voices heard. And that has to go beyond Twitter - for me as well.

If you don't know my name and you don't know what movie I'm from, don't come ask for a picture while I'm trying to eat chipotle

I've lived in a bubble my whole life. I never thought someone with those kind of views, who came across to me so ignorant every time he speaks, could ever be elected.

Young people are this country [America], and we need to speak out.

A lot of high school students on TV and in Broadway are played by people in their late 20s and even early 30s. That seems weird to me.

I'm a big fan of Shake Shack.

I'm trying to have no regrets. I'm starting to learn about myself and how to live. As an actor, part of the job is accepting your life and learning how to roll with it. I want to live a life where I don't regret any decisions, and if I do, I learn from them.
