Think about how much it costs to incarcerate someone. Do we want them just sitting in prison lifting weights becoming violent and thinking about the next crime? Or do we want them having a little purpose in life and learning a skill?
I was delighted to have lines when they came - learning lines for film isn't a problem but television is a little different because we shot those shows the whole way through.
Hopefully with each thing that you do you're learning something you're growing and you're pushing yourself a little harder in some way or another. So I think you'd be in real trouble if each new thing that you create didn't feel like 'Oh wow. I feel like I'm doing something a little different this time.'
If this validates anything it's that learning how to bunt and hit and run and turning two is more important than knowing where to find the little red light at the dug out camera.
Learning to shoot firearms to me is a little like driving stick - it seems like a decent skill to have.
A little learning is a dangerous thing but a lot of ignorance is just as bad.
If I don't need the money I don't work. I'm going to spend time with my family and friends and I'm going to travel and read and listen to music and try to learn a little bit more about how to be a human being as opposed to learning how to be somebody else.
I spent a little time in Germany as a schoolboy learning German and it's a country I knew very well spent a lot of time in. I knew the history very well. I've always wanted to do a piece of work about the post-war period of one sort or another.
I'd love to go to fashion week! I'm learning more about designers thanks to 'Pretty Little Liars'' costume designer Mandi Line.
I never was good at learning things. I did just enough work to pass. In my opinion it would have been wrong to do more than was just sufficient so I worked as little as possible.
