I never look backwards. I have always been an athlete. I boxed before I acted.

You know, back in acting school they always teach you, 'Make bold choices and look for activities that are interesting.'

I had a bonding problem when I went off and boxed for five years. I was over in Europe and Asia fighting because I wanted to do something different; I was tired of acting. But the thing is, when I was done doing that, I couldn't get a job.

I always knew I'd accomplish something very special - like robbing a bank perhaps.

When you're young, working in a warehouse or selling hot dogs, you look at work - at acting - as something precious. It gets you out of the stink.

Sometimes the independent movies can get a little too arty-farty. You watch the IFC Channel and you want to throw up. You don't always have to take things so serious, you know.
