If 50 percent of your career is not filled with failure, you're not really successful.

The only thing I haven't done as an actor, other than Thai puppet theater somewhere, is act on a Broadway stage.

When actors get pigeonholed, that's their own doing to a large degree. Because if you do something that people like, obviously they're going to ask you to do it again. It's up to you to say no. If you're that insecure about working, you'll probably do what you're known to do.

I'd like to be doing quality acting in a quality role and making as many people as possible happy.

I mean, my music career and my acting career - if I want to do them to the extent that I eventually do want to get to, it's going to be a bit of a balancing act. But I'm hoping they'll just go hand in hand.

If I hadn't had a childhood career, I probably would've signed a contract with the first person I came across.

I believe that a creative career is only as good as the risks that you take with it.

I am fortunate enough with my career that I can speak out to the masses and hopefully be a part of initiating change.
