Being able to laugh at a situation can help you hang on to your perspective. And there's an intimacy in laughter that nothing else can come close to.

I do know that if you're able to laugh in a situation, it means you have perspective on the situation... that you're not swallowed up by it. On some level, you can keep your head above water enough to see the humor in something. Being able to have a sense of humor in dark times is an indication that you can make it.

You do have to follow your heart, otherwise you're living a false life.

A lot of actors are perfectionists, besides merely being egotists.

Your reaction when you lose control in a situation is to try and hang on tighter.

Nothing else matters so much as long as you can come home and be with your family.
