"I really, specifically, love acting, and I think it's a really cool thing to be really indulgent and follow that. I have a lot of ambitions in life, but for the next few years, I just want to be an actor. That's a lucky opportunity, and that drives me to want to be good at that."

"I like being in movies that have a great story. I'm not so interested in being a Hollywood star. It's a job, you know. When you wake up at six in the morning every day for a week, it feels like hard work."

"I think people are used to seeing actors be wide open and desperately giving of themselves, and while I do that on a movie set as much as I can, it's so unnatural for me to do it on television, in interviews, in anything like that. I also don't find that my process as an actor is really anyone else's business."

"I'm like, bursting. I should be working. I don't want to take a break. It's funny, on set, I don't have to go to the bathroom, I don't have anything wrong, I'm perfectly fine, so through-and-through. I'm not hungry. I'm literally not even in my own body."

"Fear will knock at every door; only those with resolved hearts refuse to let it enter. Let this simple maxim guide your daily deeds — an essential principle for the reflective life."

"Fortitude is the quiet voice at eventide saying: I will try once more tomorrow. Let this simple maxim guide your daily deeds."

"A leader does not command the wind, but sets the sails and steadies the crew. Let this simple maxim guide your daily deeds."

"A leader does not command the wind, but sets the sails and steadies the crew. For where clarity resides, peace inevitably follows."
