I go out with friends, but I don't have time to get in trouble.

It's an incredible privilege for an actor to look into the camera. It's like looking right into the heart of the film, and you can't take that lightly.

I wish I had a twin, so I could know what I'd look like without plastic surgery.

God made us for joy. God is joy, & the joy of living reflects the original joy that God felt in creating us.
