[on acting] Do it, all the time. There's this weird thing about acting where you have to wait for somebody to ask you to do it; like you have to wait for a director to say it's okay. Like, fuck that, you should make plays, you should make films, do it with your friends, 'cause that's the only way you learn anything.
