In Hungary, acting is a career for which one fits himself as earnestly as one studies for a degree in medicine, law, or philosophy. ↗

It took me years to live down Dracula and convince the film producers that I would play almost any other type of role. ↗

A few years ago you couldn't go from TV to film. It was like a 'no no' but I believe when you find a plan and purpose that God has for your life, there's not anything man can do to you. Especially when your faith is not really standing in the wisdom of man, you're really standing in the wisdom of God. ↗

I was watching TV at age 9 or 10, and my mom said that I came from the front room and I told her that I want to act. And she said if you want to do this at 18, then you can. It was a very simple story, yet, I do not even remember the conversation that I had with my mother. Until she reminded me of the story many years later. ↗
