I think one of the coolest things you can do is disappear for a while, because it gives you the chance to re-emerge. To sort of pounce out of the jungle.
When you just arrive in L.A., you are in a great position, as you are 'fresh meat,' and people will meet you and give you a chance.
Whatever character you play, it gives you the chance to expose another side of yourself that maybe you've never felt comfortable with, or never knew about.
The point is, when you have a chance to have a big adventure, especially if, like in your case, it doesn't hurt anyone, it's just plain foolish not to take it.
If I'm not working and getting my makeup done, that's my chance to do a hair mask and a face mask and my plucking and waxing and all of that.
I don't aspire to direct like many actors. I would aspire most likely to do some writing, but I haven't had a chance to do that.
I firmly believe lyrics have to breathe and give the audience's ear a chance to understand what's going on. Particularly in the theater, where you have costume, story, acting, orchestra.
I don't think I'm going to become Brad Pitt overnight, but I presume if walk down Oxford Street, there is a chance someone might clock me.
I feel bad for young actors who become huge stars too quickly, because you haven't had a chance to practice your craft a lot.
Acting is easier than skating in a way and harder in other aspects. In skating, you get one chance, and with acting you get to do it over and over.
I will say, I'm a great, great, great grandson of Stephen F. Austin. He founded Austin, Texas, which is kind of cool.
Like a welcome summer rain, humor may suddenly cleanse and cool the earth, the air and you.
What's cool is when you're able to give your audience imagination and you don't have to cage them in like animals.
I didn't come to Hollywood to drink or get high, and I don't want to be considered a cool actor - I want to be a great actor.
We are witnessing an enormous shift of collective consciousness throughout the world. We are at the precipice of great transformation within our culture and government.
I heard a definition once: Happiness is health and a short memory! I wish I'd invented it, because it is very true.
I wish people could achieve what they think would bring them happiness in order for them to realize that that's not really what happiness is.
I think the secret to happiness is having a Teflon soul. Whatever comes your way, you either let it slide or you cook with it.
There once was a demographic survey done to determine if money was connected to happiness and Ireland was the only place where this did not turn out to be true.
You can undo a lot of things. If you're not happy, you can become happy. Happiness is a choice. That's the thing I really feel.
Off with you! You're a happy fellow, for you'll give happiness and joy to many other people. There is nothing better or greater than that!
