I grow old learning something new every day.
The spotlight will always be on me but it's something I'm learning to live with as the years go by.
My advice to an aspiring actor would be to never stop learning or working for what you want. Nothing comes easy ever if you want something you have to work for it. By working for it I mean work on your craft learn from people who have something to teach. It's just like anything else practice makes perfect.
The role of the musician is to go from concept to full execution. Put another way it's to go from understanding the content of something to really learning how to communicate it and make sure it's well-received and lives in somebody else.

It is always good to explore the stuff you don't agree with to try and understand a different lifestyle or foreign worldview. I like to be challenged in that way and always end up learning something I didn't know.
The learning process is something you can incite literally incite like a riot.
That is what learning is. You suddenly understand something you've understood all your life but in a new way.
If you're going to go through hell... I suggest you come back learning something.
No man ever prayed heartily without learning something.
