“Choose love, and don’t ever let fear turn you against your playful heart.”

So many of us choose our path out of fear disguised as practicality.

I absolutely want to have a career where you make’em laugh and make’em cry. It’s all theater.

I don’t hate you for loving you. I just hate my heart for choosing someone like you.

I wished people could realize all of their dreams of wealth and fame so they could see that it’s not where you’ll find your sense of completion.

Desperation is a necessary ingredient to learning anything, or creating anything. Period. If you ain’t desperate at some point, you ain’t interesting.

One man’s toxic waste is another man’s potpourri.

Maybe other people will try to limit me but I don’t limit myself.

Morgan Freeman is so class. He’s so cool. He’s so scary.

Fear is going to be a player in your life, but you get to decide how much.

You are ready and able to do beautiful things in this world.

I want to be the greatest actor that ever lived, frankly. I’d love that. But I don’t need to be. I just want to be here. That’s it.

Either you’re the one erasing or you’re the one being erased.

The peace that we’re after lies somewhere beyond personality, beyond the perception of others, beyond invention and disguise, even beyond effort itself.

Maybe other people will try to limit me but I don’t limit myself.

If you give up on your dreams, what’s left?
