I guess because of my act, people think that I say things they want to say, and that they can just come up and say anything to me.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If I have to go around telling everyone how great I am, then there's something wrong with my act.
The reason I act is because I'm trying to understand why people are as they are.
When you act for a living, you are lucky enough to get to say things you really want to say. You get lines that you look forward to, lines that jump out like a jack-in-the-box; you're thinking: 'Wait till you hear this.'
In order to maintain that fire for acting and capture its essence, you can't let yourself be concerned with what people have to say about you. You just can't.
Acting isn't that hard, really. I mean, I think that people make a big deal about it, but you just kind of try to say your lines naturally.
A lot of times when you're acting, you're no longer talking and listening; you're going at it for your own self.
I think people have to look at it from a certain view. I say things because, at the end of the day, I can say whatever I want.
Why talk now when so many things have been said without ever giving me a chance to talk?
A lot of the time, people think I'm really dumb or really uncomfortable talking to them, which is kind of a real thing.
I veer away from trying to understand why I act. I just know I need to do it.
