There's a saying that we use in golf: "i'd rather be lucky than good." of course, to be lucky and good is the ideal. if you study hard, you can get good. and if you get lucky and get the proper parts for people to be able to appreciate what you're doing ... i'm sure there are many actors that are quite talented who have never been a success because they've never had the right opportunity and the right material. my mother used to think i had a guardian angel.

Oh yeah, i'm the president of the lucky club. there are so many talented people who don't work. and the crop of young actors i'm surrounded by is incredible. when you have people like that around you it amps you up a little bit. also, emile hirsch and joseph gordon-levitt, or guys like ryan gosling. it's a really good crowd and i feel i'm coming up at a good time. but equally, there's a lot of good young actors who don't get to work who are more talented than i. i'm just lucky.

The lack of opportunity is ever the excuse of a weak, vacillating mind. opportunities! every life is full of them. every newspaper article is an opportunity. every client is an opportunity. every sermon is an opportunity. every business transaction is an opportunity, an opportunity to be polite, an opportunity to be manly, an opportunity to be honest, an opportunity to make friends.
Opportunity Mind Clients
I hope my talent has something to do with it. i just think this business is so crazy. i obviously do the best i can, and the directors i admire see something in me. but this is a strange business, and there are people who are incredibly talented who never make it, who never get these opportunities. so that's why i say i'm lucky. i don't feel that i'm not talented - i think i am talented - but i also think i'm very lucky.

A new study finds that women use their whole brain when listening and men only use half of their brain. you see, men use the other half of their brain to come up with excuses. i don't think women use their whole brain when listening. i think they use half of it and the other half is used to memorize what men are saying so they can use it against them 10 years later!
