Wire-walking in performance is one thing - I never fell, of course. If I had, I wouldn't be here talking about it.
I was grateful to have two weeks to shoot this one scene in Harry Potter. It's a big, big scene, but they have to deliver. And they have high expectations.
I was aiming for the cooks that I've talked to by teaching an online course and by traveling, listening to people who are really busy and harried but want to be cooking.
I was born in 1991, and 'Harry Potter' came out in '97, so, you know, I was really obsessed. I used to read them in one night.
When you die, it does not mean that you lose to cancer. You beat cancer by how you live, why you live, and in the manner in which you live.
I'm blind in my left eye. Contrary to what people say, it is not a glass eye, so I have to protect my eyes at all cost.

Michael Weiss and Todd Eldredge and I all competed against each other. Even though I'm older than them, we did cross over a little bit.
I would never scream at my kids, never raise my voice. But as they often tell me, they were so well behaved that screaming was not necessary.
The most important aspect of leading is knowing oneself. Know yourself, know the people around you, and then get on with it.
I mean, I must confess I don't own Harry Potter DVDs. My parents do. They have them all. And they like watching them.
President Obama and Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi represent what mainstream America is rejecting about Washington, D.C. And that is this out of touch with the people.
