If you have everything, then you don't want to go on. It's the lacking that makes you search for something better.
Choosing to be in the theatre was a way to put my roots down somewhere with other people. It was a way to choose a new family.
For me, habit is just a synonym for death.
I like intensity. If it's too mellow, I feel like, bleah. I like intensity, because it's way of reaching spaces inside of you, and it's my need of knowledge, of knowing about myself regardless.
My only ambition is to be true every moment I am living.
I think the world would be much better if you always started the morning by calling the person you dreamt of during the night.
I need relationships, but sometimes when I am in one I feel claustrophobic. It is about feeling that I still have my freedom, that I have choices. I don't look back on the past because I like to live in the present. I know this makes some people think I probably never cared, but I need my freedom and I like to keep moving.
I love the unknown. I think because it brings fear, and to embrace fear is the best feeling.
I live for the present always. I accept this risk. I don't deny the past, but it's a page to turn.
I've been changed watching films or reading books or hearing music, and that helps you to live your life.
I believe such illumination comes if you're open to the surprises the universe throws at you. You must be able to let go of the past, whatever success you may have seen, whatever your comfort, whatever your habits. To me, that's the key to loving life: Enabling yourself to step bravely into the unknown. Only there will you find yourself again.
Attraction is beyond our will or ideas sometimes.
When you really put your heart in the work, you don't think of how you look. And I think that's the beauty of it.
The strong is not the one who can put on the blades at a glance, and the one who is able to raise a smile from his knees!
