Well, acting was just in me and I tried to avoid it. I didn't want to do what my parents did, you know?

When I was a teenager I loved acting, but I really just loved it for myself. I didn't like the fact that anyone else saw the work I was doing. When I moved to New York, I started to realize that I wanted people to see the stuff that I was doing, and I wanted it to mean something to them.

My parents made certain I had no illusions about acting. To them, it was always just a job.

It feels like as you get a bit older, you've worked out the things that are good for your life apart from with acting.

I remember when I was a kid, with the acting thing, I resented it because, you know, you don't want to do what your parents want you to do.

I fell in love with acting. I thought, 'This is what I want to do.'

I check all my props, everything. Acting is something I love. I have done it since I was 13 but it had completely taken over my life absolutely.

I love acting. It's what I do, not what I am.

At 15 I had moved out of my parents' place, and my options were looking pretty narrow. But I had this acting thing and I just wanted to be able to keep going because it was really good. That was all I wanted.

I always felt like acting was something I could just do if I wanted, which was wrong.
