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 had no intention of being an actor. I was quite good at it. I was pretty capable at other things but never any good at anything.

I never really wanted to be an actor. And that was the beginning of it, I began to write things down and eventually became a writer on a television show.

I never even thought about being an actor. Somebody asked me if I'd like to learn the craft, and I said, 'Okay.' I was a gymnast in a show at that time, and somebody asked me afterwards one night. I performed as a gymnast for nine years, and then I did acting after that.

I never wanted to be an actor. I got stuck in it and kind of liked what I was doing.

Quite honestly I never had a desire to be an actor. I tell people, I did not choose acting; acting chose me. I never grew up wanting to be an actor. I wanted to play football. In about 9th grade an English teacher told me I had a talent to act. He said I should audition for a performing arts high school so I did on a whim. I got accepted.

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.

My introduction to acting was through theatre, so I actually saw a couple of Broadway shows that made me want to be an actor.

I never wanted to become an actor to be famous. I just wanted to be a good actor. It served me pretty well.

I always wanted to be an actor, but with a speech impediment it's kind of tough. I decided to roll the dice and take an acting class, which was very, very nerve-wracking... my stomach would just be in knots.
