Clarity keeps you from boredom.
I grew up on soul music. I was a dancing little creep.
I work in a strange business, and trust is a word that's not even in the vocabulary.
I just want to thank everybody I've ever met in my entire life.
I love to be nervous before a scene.
I'm my own worst enemy sometimes when I pick projects.
Parents can be very influential in designing those little creepy-crawlers that jump around in your mind for the rest of your life. It's the fear of not being good enough.
I'm a very determined person.
That was the first time I knew I loved him.
I've done so many dramas in my life, and people don't even know I came from comedy.
I remember that Jack Lemmon, who is one of my favorite actors of all time, says that the day he stops being nervous is the day he should leave the business.
There are movies that I did and I know what I did and I know the story, and I don't want to see that.
I still eat sushi, though I'm trying my best to have my last sushi roll.
Watching myself still makes me uneasy - and when you're younger, you're even more unforgiving.
