Personal Quotes

Traits like humility, courage, and empathy are easily overlooked – but it’s immensely important to find them in your closest relationships.
I believe that no matter what you do in life, if you learn the basics through theater, it will help you in everything else – problem solving, communication, discipline, all of that stuff.
Things get complicated at times, so there are certainly moments when you wish your life were different. That’s true for everybody, not just people in our profession. But there’s nothing I feel like I gave up professionally. I’m absolutely doing what I enjoy.
Comedy is a way to make sense of chaos. It’s a way of dealing with things that are overwhelming, that threaten you; it’s a way to survive and get closer to the truth.12Source: azquotes.com
