■Personal Quotes 語錄:
\"When I got to college, acting suddenly seemed like a very risky proposition and all my friends were going to law school or med school or Wall Street.\"
“上大學的時候,覺得從事演戲這個行業似乎有些冒險,我的朋友們不是去法學院,就是去學醫,要不就去華爾街做生意了。”
\"You might look at my CV and see I've had 12 jobs, but I've been to over 450 auditions so I've heard 'no' a lot more than I've heard 'yes'. So if I go in looking only to meet my own standards, then that will make taking that rejection a little bit easier. And when I do get that job it will seem like icing on the cake.\"
“你也許看我的簡歷了,我已經做了12份工作了,但我曾參加過450次試鏡,所以我聽過的‘不’要比我聽過的‘是’'要多。所以,每次我以我自己的標準來演,這樣即使被拒絕,我也能容易接受,但如果他們雇用我了,這無異于是錦上添花 。”
\"My experience is that I find myself having to constantly define myself to others, day-in, day-out. The quote that's helped me the most through that is from Toni Morrison's 'Beloved' where she says, 'Definitions belong to the definers, not the defined' , so I find myself defining myself for other people lest I be defined by others and stuck into some box where I don't particularly belong.\"
“我的經驗是,我發現自己時常會不斷地參照別人來界定自己。是托妮莫里森的‘寵兒’里的一句話讓我得到解脫的,她說:‘定義屬于定義者,而不是被定義的事物。’ 使我發現為其他人界定自己,要比別人把我貼上標簽放進并不屬于我的櫥柜要好得多。”
\"I'm kind of a dork. I don't have much game. I'm not particularly comfortable in bars or clubs. I much prefer being home playing Scrabble, having dinner with a couple friends, going to see a movie, or losing a whole weekend to The Simpsons.\"
“我的生活很枯燥,我不太玩游戲。在酒吧或俱樂部我會感到很不舒適。我更喜歡待在家里玩兒《游戲機爭奪戰》,和幾個朋友聚餐,去看看電影,或花上整個周末的時間看《辛普森一家》。”
\"I made a decision not to work out because I'm lazy and also, the character is not a superhero. I didn't want him to be a buff guy with Jackie Chan moves because the point is he's smarter than your average .\"
“我做了個決定,以后不鍛煉了,因為我很懶,而且這也不是個英雄的角色。我不想讓這個角色演得像成龍劇里的工夫小子一樣,因為他比普通人要聰明得多啊。”
