You Want The Story To End When

I Think There's More Pressure To Stand Out In A Way That Is Measurable Externally. The Fame Culture Is Definitely Way Worse And Weirder Than It Was When We Were In High School.

I Personally Was Driven To Be An Actor For The Love Of Telling A Story. It Was Very Closely Linked To Being A Reader As A Kid And Being Transported By Literature And Art. It Had Nothing - Zero - To Do With Anything Resembling Fame.

Nobody Ever Seems To Want My Advice About Serious Stuff. People Will Be Like: 'who Made That Sweater?' Or 'how Did You Get Your Hair So Straight?' They Don't To Come To Me For The Relationship Advice Or Deep Stuff. In Fact, My Little Sister Actually Hides From Me.

Moving. Someone Said This To Me A Long Time Ago, It's Bhuddist Saying, I Think: 'there Is No Wasted Effort'.

Over And Over In The Play My Character Says, "i'm Thirty-two Years Old," As If That Should Explain Everything That's Wrong In Her Life. I Don't Know What It's Like To Be Thirty-two, But I Can Imagine. I Imagine She Means She's Stuck In An In-between Time, She's At An Age That Isn't A Milestone But More Of A No-man's-land, An Age Where She's Feeling Like Her Hopes Are Fading.
