I'm not a big shopper.
artist people goal
The goal is just to try to get better and better, and the only way that makes sense to do that is to work with the best people. Surround yourself with the best artists and learn from them, and try to sink your teeth into the best material possible.

I've never been a big gore guy.
hero people groups
Some people that are heroes to some can be looked at by another group of people as villains. As far as a middle point, just speaking for myself, that's exactly what to avoid.

I want people to think about everyone in their life, and their responsibilities to their friends, their families and their country.
country political belief
I hope that I would put whatever my political beliefs aside, and realize that my country's asked me to to something, and do it.
sports teacher art
I went to school to play sports, but I got involved in theatre in college kind of by mistake. I ended up taking an acting class almost just to get rid of an arts requirement, but I wound up in this wonderful acting class with this teacher named Alma Becker who really saved my life. I was just kind of this knucklehead kid from DC and I was in and out of trouble all of the time. I took a theatre class and she really discovered something in me and I absolutely fell in love with it.

I wanted to be kicked and hit and bruised up and beaten. It became something that was an absolutely necessary part of every day for me.
fighting bully guy
Fighting really does reveal everything to the other guy. It's not just about who can beat up to or who's tougher, it's who bullies who and who goes easy on who. You change from opponent, so it's about how you deal with a challenge and how you deal with a guy who you can handle easily.
fighting thinking athletic
We all come from different levels, and I think every human has their own relationship to violence, athletic violence and fighting.
