“There’s nothing like working with your mates – it’s the way it should be, as far as I’m concerned.”

When I first started acting, I was just crap.

If you spend all day on horseback, and you hop off, you walk around like you still have a horse between your legs. And it affects your shoulders. They fall.

I like to set up obstacles and defeat them.

The reason that you dance and sing is to make the audience feel like they’re dancing and singing. As long as you’re having fun with it and giving it 100 percent, they’re gonna feel that.

I never want to feel like I’ve achieved my goal. It’s like Chinese farmers. They never admit that it’s a good season. They feel like they’ll be punished.

I generally don’t think most situations can be labeled as black or white.

It’s kind of a rule of thumb for me to self-doubt going into any kind of project. I always think that I shouldn’t be doing it and I don’t know how to do it and I’m going to fail and that I fooled them. I always try to find a way out.

If you are just safe about the choices you make, you don’t grow.

The Oscars are a really strange concept to me, that films and acting can be competing against each other. We’re not running the same race. It’s like we’re all doing different sports in fact.

In order not to hold a frame with someone, you have to be intimidated by them.

I thought, I need to be more cautious about my choices – it reflects on who I am.

I believe that whatever doesn’t kill you, simply makes you stronger.

I only do this because I’m having fun. The day I stop having fun, I’ll just walk away.

I have a lot of great distractions outside of acting.

I think the most common cause of insomnia is simple; its loneliness.

I feel like I’m wasting time if I repeat myself.

If you’re feeling a little low, put on a pair of high heels and stand a little taller! Always works for me!

Everyone is ready to celebrate your hard work and accomplishments.

The world doesn’t owe you anything. You have to work for everything you get and you have to appreciate every bit of success the world gives you.

Do what you can and pray for what you cannot yet do.

Strong reasons make strong actions.

When I say or do something, I do it. I don’t give a damn what you think. I’m doing this for me.

To be honest like when you work at something for a long time and then coming to a family of people who support what you do hmm, you are very lucky!

Nothing comes from doing nothing.
