When I was doing half-hour shows, I loved it and was preparing myself for the hour shows. Then when I did the hour shows, I was preparing myself for the specials and features.
I don't even know who that person was in the '80s. I see pictures of myself from back then and I don't even recognize myself.
I don't see myself as angry, although other people see that. I just see myself as a short, dumpy guy with bad feet, and I'm passionate.
I said, 'I'll give myself two years. If I can't support myself as an actress within two years, then I'll go back to choreography.'
I felt like I got more comfortable on 'Idol' when I just started being myself and not trying to be what I thought I had to be.
I don't talk to myself or anything, but sometimes I say things and I laugh at myself. Sometimes you have to make fun of yourself.
To withdraw myself from myself has ever been my sole, my entire, my sincere motive in scribbling at all.
I actually don't want a throne at all, because I don't view myself as a queen; I view myself as one of my fans.
I don't consider myself an artist. I consider myself a very opinionated man who uses words as fighting tools.
I had never really thought of myself as a writer; any writing I had done was just to give myself something to draw.
It is this belief in a power larger than myself and other than myself which allows me to venture into the unknown and even the unknowable.
But I don't think of myself as a foreigner or a Frenchman! I just think of myself as a director. Whether I'm French or Australian or whatever, it's really not important.
I just never let anything bother me, man. I know myself really well. Nobody's opinion of me can shake my opinion of myself.
If I can avoid looking at myself, I will. I don't care to examine myself or see much of what I do. I never care how I look.
I never thought of myself as either a woman or a man. I thought of myself as a person who was born to a writer, who was doomed to be a writer.
I have very high expectations of myself. I'm a very competitive person but competitive with myself. I want to be the best that I can be and if that means that I'm eventually better than everyone else then so be it.
For me, the desire exists less to get myself a degree than to just go and have the whole college experience, and throw myself into the brain pool and see if I can swim.
I was one of those guys who never wanted to start their own business. I never saw myself as a leader. I saw myself as a great No. 2.
I don't like seeing myself on screen. Whenever I see or hear myself, I think, 'What is that eejet doing now?' I'm in the wrong business. I don't like the limelight.
I'd rate myself an 8. I do have my flaws, but I'm a cool dude. If I wasn't myself, I'd kick it with me. I'm a down-to-earth person and all around cool guy.
I'm expressing myself by acting. I'm learning about myself and making a living. I hope to do much more of it, so I can contribute my share to the world.
