->''"The most significant piece of advice [[Creator/DonaldSutherland my father]] gave me early on about acting was, don't get caught acting. [[LostInCharacter Really believe in what you're doing and then commit to it.]] Even if it feels uncomfortable, even if you feel that you're gonna look like an ass. It's all acting, but find the truth in a moment as opposed to just pretending you have and rather than trying to act your way out of it."''
