Quote by Donnie Wahlberg

“Every job in Hollywood is a risk. You don't know, when you sign a contract, if something is going to pop, you don't know whether this or that network is going to support your show. You just show up and do the best work you can do, gravitate towards the best material, you know, and try to make the right choices. And the rest of it is a roll of the dice.”

“There are certain things that I will do viscerally to affect people emotionally, with speed changes and sound, and various other things.
