Personal quotes

"You know one of the things about going from modeling to acting is it’s so much more fulfilling.
With modeling, you get your picture taken, which is great, good for you, you know? But in acting, you’re able to reach in and show a little bit more of yourself."

[on having his own action figure]: "I don’t think one is ever prepared for something like that. But, it’s fun. I hope it’s durable."
