When I went to auditions, if I didn't know the lines, I wasn't getting the job. If I knew my lines, if I knew what I was supposed to be doing, I got the job. And it was always like that - if I'm working hard, I get the result that I'm looking for.

I feel it's important for the geeks to have a voice. 'Dope' is going to give a lot of people a new perspective.

I was the one that was always dancing and got along with everybody, but I also spoke my mind. If I didn't agree with something the teacher would say, I'd tell her, so I would get in trouble for things like that. I've always been a good/bad boy.

When I was 12, my dad took me to see 'You Got Served.' I walked out a whole different person.

I've told older friends to pick up the guitar because it's a great way to express yourself. It's not all about making money: it's about creating art and working with other people. It's a journey, and it's a really fun thing to do.

Richard Donner's friendship and guidance showed me that there's more to life than being an actor.

I watch people, friends of mine, and see how they portray themselves online and I find interesting that it's kind of a hyper-real version of yourself, how you'd like to be seen, in a way.

Female friendship... I think you have friendships that come and go, and then there are ones that the girl becomes a part of your bones.
