"There’s talent here and people are recognizing that now.We’ve got great actors, we just haven’t been able to show that because of our past history with apartheid."

"You know, personal experience…you’ve got to learn to be tough, you’ve got to learn to survive."

"If you want to make it to the top, you’ve got to look out for yourself. And finding support is a very rare thing, especially when your family is all over the place."

"Everyday you have to wake up and do something that scares you, because if you don’t, you’re not living. You have to feel that rush of adrenaline or whatever it is, that spark of energy that makes you feel alive."

"Do something every day that scares you, which is why I do what I do. It’s just the biggest rush of like adrenaline. Face your fear head on."
