My grandfather was raising me, and in many respects, I was trying to understand what it meant to be a man. He was my role model.

Everyone says villains are thankless parts, but those are really the best roles.

If every time you engage in a sex act, you go into a confession box, you will never accept your own sexuality.

If you're going to go to an audition, you don't want to go in trying to force yourself into some archetype that has been thought up by a director and translated by a casting director.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.
