- I've got an older brother. I was a very quiet kid growing up, and I always played my cards close to my chest. [As a family] we made do with the little we had. Some kids have a lot less than [we did]. Some kids have a lot more.

- My friends call me The Iceberg because I'm seen as cool and collected. I don't show too much. I'm just floating along the seas.
- I just think there's something in staying anonymous for as long as possible. There's a mystery. Once you lose it, you can't get it back. If people get to know the real me, it detracts from what I'm trying to do as an actor.
- I'm quite serious, probably way too much.
