I think some people in their 20s really get it, that acting is about creativity and the work. They get their maturity from their work.
My mom would give me a piece to play, but I wouldn't do any theory because when it came time to do it I would sneak back upstairs and watch TV. So, I had these kind of nonchalant lessons for years, then it just started soaking in.
I like to let my football do the talking, I'm respectful of other good teams such as Arsenal.
