Being your best is not so much about overcoming the barriers other people place in front of you as it is about overcoming the barriers we place on ourselves
-Kieren Perkins

Someone said to me, 'If fifty percent of the experts in Hollywood said you had no talent and should give up, what would you do?' My answer was then and still is, 'If a hundred percent told me that, all one hundred percent would be wrong.'
