“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.”

Growing up in Australia, you never feel like you’re going to live beyond that place. You wake up and you go to the beach, and you do your homework. You’re just a kid.

I apologize for my terrible interview skills.

I do think that drugs and alcohol have been glorified and exoticized in such a way that it gets into the art world.

My nervous energy is usually the easiest form of energy to tap into.

See I’m not a monster, I’m just ahead of the curve.

Had I listened to my agent, I’d be running around in tights, climbing buildings and stuff.

I’m sure drugs and alcohol perhaps would inspire new thoughts, but it’s certainly not something that I use as a tool or a mechanism to create.

I’m not good at future planning. I don’t plan at all. I don’t know what I’m doing tomorrow. I don’t have a day planner and I don’t have a diary. I completely live in the now, not in the past, not in the future.

In the birthing process, you come out just realizing how stupid and weak men are! I mean, I might as well not have been in there, we’re useless!

I’m still a kid. I’m like six years old. But it’s just a matter of wanting to get up, it’s just a big journey. I felt like when I left home that I was on a journey, and I still am.

It’s rare that there’s a role that requires an Australian accent.

I like to see films that come out with lower budgets because you’re forced into using your imagination. You don’t have everything at your fingertips. You have to create it from scratch.

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.

With Heaven’s aid I have conquered for you a huge empire. But my life was too short to achieve the conquest of the world. That task is left for you.

The greatest achievement was at first and for a time a dream. The oak sleeps in the acorn; the bird waits in the egg, and in the highest vision of the soul a waking angel stirs. Dreams are the seedlings of realities.

All that man achieves and all that he fails to achieve is the direct result of his own thoughts.

People need to feel very good about their achievements. They get pride in what they are doing.

Remember you are strong enough to achieve what you want.

I would like to see anyone be able to achieve their dreams, and that’s what this organization does.

You learn a lot in life but there are a lot of tools and resources in school that help you grow professionally and personally for whatever goal you may want to achieve.

What the mind can conceive, It can achieve.
