I believe in professionalism, but playing is not like a job. You have to be grateful to have the opportunity to play.

That professionalism comes from what I've watched people do on the set. I'm just trying to be as respectful to the environment, as they have been. I think I still act like a kid. I just try to be as professional as I can.

I probably complicate things unnecessarily now just to give the illusion of professionalism.

The professional world was much more unpleasant than I thought. I was always wishing I could get back that enthusiasm I had when I was doing shows at college.

Being professional is just really clearly the way to go and helps you on the road to longevity.

I played basketball, and I loved it. But I never thought of it seriously as being a professional.

For me, it took five years to understand what professionalism meant. But I'm more settled now. I'm married, life changes, and I've been lucky in managing my injuries.

So in one leap we had gone from being a friendly society to something almost professional.

It occured to me that eating is the only form of professionalism most people ever attain.

It's different when you become a professional, because you also have to become a businessman, and that takes something away from it.
