“Acting is just a way of making a living, the family is life.”

Learn to laugh at your failures, smile at your wins and don’t be afraid to laugh at yourself.

The chances you take, the people you meet, the people you love, the faith that you have. That’s what’s going to define you.

Wisdom is there at your fingertips, use it.

If you don’t trust the pilot, don’t go.

Never confuse movement with progress. Because you can run in place and not get anywhere.

Goals on the road to achievement cannot be achieved without discipline and consistency.

The only thing stopping you from achieving your dreams are the stories you keep telling yourself that you can’t. Don’t wait- act now. Regret nothing.

Don’t aspire to make a living, aspire to make a difference.

My ultimate life dream project is my kids. My family.

In Los Angeles, everyone is a star.

Got to be who you are in this world, no matter what.

I work hard for the audience. It’s entertainment. I don’t need validation.

Your choices will define you; so make them the right ones.

You pray for rain, you gotta deal with the mud too. That’s a part of it.

Never help an ungrateful person get on their feet.

Black or white good parts are hard to come by. A good actor with a good opportunity has a shot; without the opportunity it doesn’t matter how good you are.

I never really wanted to write and wanted to focus on acting.

A majority of women seem to consider themselves sent into the world for the sole purpose of displaying dry goods, and it is only when acting the part of an animated milliner’s block that they feel they are performing their appropriate mission.

I had an acting teacher tell me once that if you’re playing a car salesman, you don’t want to be an OK car salesman, you want to play the best car salesman.

I feel like after acting, the other half of why I love this business is the opportunity to work with and meet people who inspire you. That it pays my rent is a good bonus.

I was lucky enough, when I was younger, to have the chance to do as much as possible, and I found what I wanted to do. I did swimming, gymnastics, kickboxing and the one that took off more than the others was acting.

Once I came to acting, it was almost a thing where there weren’t enough hours in the day to work on stuff because I was so passionate about it.

I never consciously got into comedy. It was sort of one of those things where I was a theater student, I was acting, I was doing comedy, I was doing dramatic stuff, so it’s been something that I’ve always done and enjoyed doing and had an instinct to be relatively good at.

You know it’s hard for me to, like, act the way I’ve been acting. And, like, being, like, nice to everyone. And I think I deserve to be acknowledged for that.
