I'd always rather be lucky than smart.
I've been pretty lucky in the leading men department.
You know, I'm blessed. 'Blessed' is a better way of saying 'rich.'
There's a big difference between being privileged and being spoilt. My parents always said, 'Spoilt means ruined, and you're not ruined, just incredibly fortunate.'
Instead of comparing our lot with that of those who are more fortunate than we are, we should compare it with the lot of the great majority of our fellow men. It then appears that we are among the privileged.
We have to be thankful for what we have. A lot of kids would love to be in our situation, and we realize that.
You get to act for a living. You're fortunate. So act like it.
I've lived a charmed life.
I'm aware that there are a million other people who want what I'm lucky enough to have right now.
I've been very blessed. I don't want anyone to feel sorry for me.
I'm not the pedigree kid. I'm not classically trained. I didn't come from the fancy home, no.
I haven't had the difficulties in my life that other people have had. I didn't have an unhappy childhood.
Luck, bad if not good, will always be with us. But it has a way of favoring the intelligent and showing its back to the stupid.
I was brought up in a world of privilege.
Even when I was a kid, everything I had was the best.
I really have been so, so blessed with all my leading men.
I'm living in Beverly Hills. I'm very, very lucky. I wake up every morning and I recognize that I'm blessed.
I've got nothing to complain about. I have to enjoy and be grateful. Lots of people would like to be in my shoes.
There are so many things to be lucky for. Lucky to be healthy, lucky to be, like, beautiful. Lucky to be living in America.
Certain people get an opportunity because they happen to be in the right place at the right time. It has no bearing on their talent. I don't think we should look at it and feel bitter about it. That's the way the cookie crumbles in all professions.
I have everything that I would possibly imagine. I have a family that loves me and that's... more than most kids have. And it's really awesome for me to experience this life... because most kids don't have this life, and I'm trying to reach out to them and help them.
I am very privileged to have the parents and family that I do.
No one should ever feel sorry for me. I've been treated very well for the most part.
It was always easy for me. I was born very rich and lucky.
I've had this unbelievable amount of good fortune and I'm just so thankful for it. But at the same time I feel exceptionally guilty. I have so many friends who are talented graduates of Juilliard and are exceptional actors and I'm the lucky one that somehow got such a fortunate break.
