Quote by Jordan Gavaris

“Playing what Hollywood determines is a hero, it immediately sets actors up to feel like they just can't explore the dark parts of themselves - the character has to be likeable, has to be fuckable, has to be redemptive on all fronts. When you're playing a character that's just inherently destructive or messed up, you're given this beautiful permission to try things. There's a license to fail.”

“Talent doesn't appear over night. It takes a lot of work and honing your craft, but also don't give up because people may say you're not good enough.
