See fantasy is what people want, but reality is what they need. And I just retired from the fantasy part.
Anyone who sacrifices his dreams to reality is forever beaten.
I've been telling people 'I'm going to go to California, and I'm going to be a big star' since the womb, but lately it was immediately followed by, 'Would you like soup or salad with that?'
I grew up in a financially insecure place because I knew that my parents were following their dreams which has pros and cons. It was actually my mom who encouraged me to go to acting school because I was really afraid to put all my eggs in that basket.
Nourish your hopes, but do not overlook realities.
