Adversity Has A Way Of

To My Mind, Talent Doesn't Really Exist. Talent Is Like A Card Player's Luck. It Is Motivation, Ambition, And Luck. It's Just A Drive To Be The Best. I Think Acting Is A Con Game.

I Am Trying To Impress Myself. I Have Yet To Do It.

I Drink Protein Shakes Nonstop - Three Or Four A Day - And I Run A Lot, So You Get Rid Of The Bad Carbs And Keep The Rest So You Have The Energy To Make It Through.

I Grew Up Around A Lot Of Aggressive Guys. My Parents Used To Take Me To Aa Meetings When I Was Very Young. So I Know Aggression, I Know Insanity.

I'm Still In The Middle Of The Transition. I'm Still In Man-boy Mode. And That Won't Go Away For A While. But It's A Fun Time To Be In, Because It's Very Rare That People Get To Work Through This Time. It's Rare To See A John Cusack In Say Anything. It's Rare That You'd Find An Actor Right In The Cusp Of The Child-to Adult Transition, Just Got Through Puberty, Just Getting Into A Different Way Of Life. There's Few Movies Like That, And Few Roles Like That, So It's Going To Be Tough To Pick And Choose. I Guess The Goal Is Good People, Work With Good People.
