Could a father not marry his son?
I didn't want to be a former child actor for the rest of my life, although in some ways I suppose I am. I am going to be that.
It's a little bit annoying, because it feels like everybody's taking the power away from you. Everybody's taking your adult life away from you. On one level, I used to resent it.
People think I'm smarter than I am.
I've never considered myself cool, and I don't think I ever will be. Honestly, it's better that way. It's much less pressure.
There's a reason that girls cut off all their Barbie doll's hair and dye it and do things like that. I destroyed my Barbie dolls, and I know other girls did as well. And that's kind of the way they see kids movies and child actors in kids movies, as something that you've moved on from. It's babyish.
People view child actors the same way that girls treat their Barbie dolls.
I had rather live with cheese and garlic in a windmill.
It's only interesting when you're from somewhere else, like America or Japan. The further away the more interesting it is.

I guess it's a bit cliché, but as an actor, I really admire good writing. There are a lot of great ideas out there, but it's the execution that really makes it work.
