You've got to go out on a limb sometimes because that's where the fruit is.
You can’t be that kid standing at the top of the waterslide, overthinking it. You have to go down the chute.
Do you want to understand how to swim, or do you want to jump in and start swimming? Only people who are afraid of the water want to understand it. Other people jump in and get wet.
Leap, and the net will appear.
When the world says, 'Jump,' you gotta jump. It's like me moving to America when I was 29. I just did it. And now it's a home. You can't plan those things.
I don't have any regrets. When I quit college and moved to Los Angeles to become an actress, it was so that I would not look back and have any regrets.
I had to know if I could make it somewhere else. I did not want to go through the rest of my life wondering what might have been without putting myself to the test.
The only way to do is just to go for it, otherwise it ends up looking phoney.
Doing is a quantum leap from imagining.
But you have to do what you dream of doing even while you're afraid.
I'm never sure one is exactly ready. You jump in, with both feet, into a very big fish pond.
It doesn't matter which side of the fence you get off on sometimes. What matters most is getting off. You cannot make progress without making decisions.
When it gets to this point, it's just hard to pull the trigger.
I've always gone with the flow.
'Power' is Andy Bean's first television job, ever. Talk about sticking the landing at first go!
I didn't actually begin professionally acting until I was 30.
To put my name on a track as a solo artist was a big deal to me. There was no band to act as a buffer.
It takes bravery to end a relationship.
I just say go for it and be yourself, even if you're scared or nervous, because you'll never know what happens if you don't try.
If an idea comes and I am attracted to it, I will do it.
You've got to get to the stage in life where going for it is more important than winning or losing.
When in doubt, make a fool of yourself. There is a microscopically thin line between being brilliantly creative and acting like the most gigantic idiot on earth. So what the hell, leap.
When I got the job with 'Superman,' it felt like somebody threw me into the ocean. I was just trying to figure it out, to figure out how to tread water. Lucky for me, I'm part of a great team.
You tend to regret the things you haven't done.
To me, it's important, always in life, to never wonder what would've happened if I only tried something.
