Having it all is easy if youre willing to work for it
As a struggling actor, youre not looking for parts that define you; youre just looking for work.
If youre a singer, you do concerts, and you get that interaction with fans and see what cities in what part of the world come out to see you. When youre on television, youre removed from that.
Technique is the basis of every pursuit. If youre a sportsman or youre a singer or a swimmer, well that comes under sport but you have to develop a basic technique to know what youre doing at any given time.
School is not easy for kids and football wasn't easy for me... but if it's something you truly believe in, it's something you've got to fight for and be willing to do what you need to do make it work.
Im ridiculously fortunate to get a chance to experience the sitcom world. The schedule is extremely easy, and you get fed as an artist because youre not only working on a project, but you get to work with cameras, and you get the audience there.
There's a notion of art in this country that you have to be nutty or special or "called" in order to be an artist. I believe the questions everyone should ask themselves are, "Do you want to do it? Are you willing to do it poorly? Are you willing to do the work of doing it? Are you willing to persist when everybody tells you it's silly?" If you're willing to do that, then you can do it.
If youre going to use standards as criteria for signing musicians, you can sign thousands. If youre going to use some sort of conceptual interpretation thats based on the tradition of those standards, but is trying to move away from it, youre down to about 10 people or so.
The world is full of willing people; some willing to work, the rest willing to let them.
You can learn a lot about yourself with what youre doing and who youre with on a sunday.
If only the people around you know youre an artist, then youre doing something wrong.
Youre still beautiful to me, cause youre my mom.
You have to be willing to accept the information, you have to be willing to work hard. You have to be motivated to go to practice with an open mind. You have to be willing to be criticized. Only you can do those things.
You have to be willing to accept the information, you have to be willing to work hard. You have to be motivated to go to practice with an open mind. You have to be willing to be criticized. Only you can do those things.
Audiences grew to like this duality of feeling, where youre both championing a character and youre revolted by them.
When youre in that scene, you really wonder if this is all youre ever going to be. You know how vile and filthy you are inside.
Id be lying if I said Hollywood wasnt still an ambition; its everyones, isnt it? Youre getting paid very well, youre working with great actors and great directors - who wouldnt want to be a part of that? But its not going to break my heart if it doesnt happen. This business is about doing good work rather than how famous it makes you.
