I Have A Lot Of Really Wonderful

If There's Any Sort Of Superpower We Desperately Need Right Now, It's This Transcendental Force That Reminds Us Of Union And Connection. I Think That Superhero Stories Come From Somewhere. We Make These Aspirational Images, To Remind Us That We Have This Capacity In Ourselves Already. I Think That Electricity Can Run Through Disconnected Wires. Superheroes, Every Single One Of Them, Come From The World Of Imagination And They're Played By Humans, They're Written By Humans, And It's In The Belief That We Invest In These Characters That They Come To Life.

If One Took A Role With The Intention Of, "i'll Show Them What I Can Do!," Then It's Not Going To Be Good Because The Ego Is Going To Just Block Everything.

I Think That Artists Don't Make Art - The Art Makes Itself Through Us. I'm Not The Doer. I'm Just Along For The Ride. Acting Really Reminds Me Of That Because I Don't Write The Words; I Don't Make The Decisions. That's The Director. Narcissism Is A Tragic Condition. It Must Be So Miserable To Live Trapped In A Reflection That Only Includes The Smallest Version Of Our Identities. Our True Identities Should Have No Bounds And No Limits.

The Most Important Part Of My Practice As An Artist Has Been Remembering To Stay Humble. There Is So Much Hurt, So Much Sorrow, So Much Pain In The World, And I Think When You're Born And Bred Into Privilege, It's Easier To Have A Closed Perspective On Things. But There's This Opportunity That's Open To All Of Us To Let Empathy Connect Us Back To One Another.

For A Long Time I Felt Like I Was Fighting My Age, Like I Was Constantly Trying To Prove To People That I Was A Savvy Peer, And I Felt Them Viewing Me As A Kid. I Was A Cocky Kid, And I Felt Like I Was An Adult At, Like, 9, You Know? I Think That’s Because My Parents Always Treated Me As An Adult.
