Adversity has the effect of eliciting talents, which in prosperous circumstances would have lain dormant.
The inventory process and stepping back in your life can sometimes be a very dark process. But it also can be extremely funny and surprising.
One of the things I love about acting is that it reveals a certain something about yourself, but it doesn't reveal your own personal story.
I don't know if I discovered I had any talent. It was dogged persistence. I had to have the music.
Talent will come out.
On different projects, different pieces of you will show up. Sometimes it's surprising which piece shows up.
My work unblocks people, and then I look at the work that they do, and I think, 'My God, how could they not have known they were talented? How could they not have known?'
Talent always shouts at you.
