I think happiness is overrated. Satisfied, at peace-those would be more realistic goals.

You must lose everything in order to gain anything.

In Missouri, where I come from, we don't talk about what we do - we just do it. If we talk about it, it's seen as bragging.

I would love to work in a Bollywood film as there is so much drama and colour in the films there.
