Wickedness may prosper for a while.
Whoever is winning at the moment will always seem to be invincible.
Better to be king for a night than a schmuck for a lifetime.
Success, I've come to realise, is fleeting so you shouldn't value it too much.
When you do well at an audition, it is the highest high you can achieve because you just beat yourself. You became whatever it was, for a minute. It's a great feeling when that happens.
I have learnt the hard way that neither success nor failure last forever.
Honeymoons are great, but they don't last. And I think the same is true with success on the screen - today, I am all over the place; tomorrow, I may be gone - I may have to make room for someone else. So why make a big song and dance about it all?
Success is extremely ephemeral and very hard to hold onto.
I don't think you can catch lightning in a bottle twice.
Success lasts only three seconds. After that, you're the same as you were before you had it.
I felt unbelievably lucky to have the success I did with 'Goon Squad,' and I also felt the pressure of how fleeting that success can be.
When you win the title, you have a great few days, and then it's gone; you're already looking forward to the next season.
