Lawrence Hilton-Jacobs Quotes

• Anybody who wants to go into any business, I always say that you have to make a commitment to yourself to make it a part of your nature like the air you breathe. I don't mean that lightly. It's hard. You have to do the work, and a lot of it is going to be during your own personal downtime. And you have to be interested in it. You can never study enough, and you can never learn enough.

• Tuve muchos trabajos, porque quería ser actor, y tenía la mala costumbre de querer comer regularmente. Así que tenía que ganar dinero en algún sitio. Hice de todo, desde reponedor en unos grandes almacenes Alexander's hasta repartidor de flores, mensajero, dependiente en una tienda de comestibles o empleado en una gasolinera. Incluso trabajé en Macy's desempolvando abrigos de piel durante dos semanas.

• It's been interesting that a diversity of roles have come my way, and that I've had the opportunity to do them. To me, it's about going for a good role that has something to say, and that's a challenge. I've been lucky enough to play everything from a homeless guy to this crazy male nurse.

• I had no idea what effect something blockbustering would have. To me, it was just a job that I was trying to do the best I could. We had shot the first five shows before it went on the air. Then, it was this firecracker hit, and people were recognizing me, so it was just nuts. It was overwhelming, insane, wonderful and scary all at the same time. It's really peculiar that people see you on television and then think they have a personal relationship with you. So, they want to touch you, and grab you, and sit down and have lunch with you. It's strange, and you never get used to that.

• When you make a film, you're creating the illusion of a natural experience. But everything is created on purpose. If I want you to be scared, I'm trying to scare you. If I want you to cry, I'm trying to make you sad. If I want you to laugh, I'm trying make you laugh. So, how I get you there is what makes it interesting, because I also want it to feel seamless, and not forced. That kind of constant experimentation is just fun to explore, and I love it.

• Fue como una explosión. Simplemente no te preparas para ello. Ni siquiera sé cómo puedes hacerlo, porque no te lo esperas. Para mí, hasta ese momento, hacías un concierto y luego salías a buscar el siguiente trabajo.
