I've always been really hard on myself. If I didn't book a job, I would cry.

My job is usually to express emotion as freely as possible.

Even though my work is whimsical. I have a very serious job. I cry more than I laugh.

The way I work emotionally is: I don't ever try to cry. I try not to, which is what for me produces organic emotion.

When I was younger, I thought I had to shut myself off, work really hard to cry. I learned after a while that that's just not... You know, often in life, you cry when you're caught off-guard. That's where I need to be when I'm acting, too.

Not to sound too pathetic, but there have been long stretches where I haven't been able to get a job.

I always sympathized with the people who did work for hire; I was one of them.

They're not willing to admit that I've also shed blood and tears and often paid dearly for my success. This makes me feel extremely sad.
