Tyler James Williams Quotes

Acting is what I love. I love being the chameleon, and you can't do that if you have just one physical type.

The reason I feel like I act is because you get to live a million different lives in one. I don't have to go about my life, just being easy-going New Zealander Rose. Sometimes I can inhabit a feisty, vicious character. Sometimes I can inhabit a painfully shy British girl, or whatever it might be.
