I love Abby Lee Miller. Honestly, if there's such a thing as past lives, I was definitely a dancer.

I love writing. I love to write, and I would eventually love to have some of my work produced.

I hate taking myself seriously. It drives me crazy!

I don't ever want to be bored, doing the same thing from 9 to 5. I've always loved pretending and being someone different.

There are always ups and downs, no matter how successful you are.

I tried softball and soccer. I just didn't take as much of a liking to it as I did sitting in a movie theater and watching people recreate a story, and doing it myself, as well.

I like the idea of having a little bit of a mystery about me.

Theater is the only thing I always came back to. When I was 9, I asked my mom if I could be on TV. She was like, "Well, okay. You can try."

I always want the audience to identify with my character in some way. I mean, sometimes you'll get characters that aren't very identifiable. Sometimes you can't relate to your character at all.

I think it's important to keep the audience interested. But the best advice that I've gotten is to live in the moment. Sometimes you can get too into your head when you're in a scene.

I don't think I'd ever want to direct. I don't think I have as much discipline to direct as I would like to have, and I don't want my hair color to not go grey during that process.

Hard work is one of the greatest principles which I have carefully guided my life by.

Bettering the lives of others is the role of a person with a servant’s heart.

In his private heart no man much respects himself.

Writing a book is like an unknown abyss, every time. Every book is different. Contrary to what unpublished writers think, it's horrible to have a book out.

To be called one thing, is oftentimes to be another.

The incomprehensible pleases us, the inexplicable is our friend.

Caring for others creates the spirit of a nation.

Reading gave me hope.

Live action writers will give you a structure, but who the hell is talking about structure? Animation is closer to jazz than some kind of classical stage structure.

In an inflationary world, a toll bridge (like company) would be a great thing to own because you've laid out the capital costs. You built it in old dollars and you don't have to keep replacing it.
