Acting was never my first choice as a profession, but I came to terms with it when I decided I better buckle down and be the best I can be at it.

Never thought acting was something you could make a living at. It wasn't until I was in college, and got a lead in a play, that I began to realize I might just be able to blunder into this profession.

There came a point sometime during high school when I started thinking about exploring acting as a career, but it was more of an intention than an actual decision. I was very interested in a lot of different subjects, but every time I envisioned myself actually pursuing one as a career, I always ended up thinking that I would rather be acting.

Growing up, I wasn't sure about acting, but I knew I wanted to be part of the movie industry.

I didn't become an actor because I wanted to act. Actually, I wanted to become a marine biologist. But most of all, I wanted to be accepted.

I didn't pursue acting as a career until I got my first job. I didn't think I could make a living at it. You hear such horror stories about how hard it is to get work as an actor. It is hard, but I decided to roll with it.

I like to say that I didn't choose acting - acting chose me.

Acting is just something I always knew I wanted to do - acting and writing.

I never really considered acting as a career. I kind of fell into it. Originally, I wanted to be a painter.

I went into acting because I had to make a good living. I had a child now and I had to support him any way I could... I wasn't happy, but I wasn't unhappy. I was just doing what I had to do to survive.
