I think that when you decide to dedicate yourself to creative endeavors and surround yourself with people who are creative, you very quickly learn how hard it is to survive doing those kinds of things, not to mention make a living at them. Early on—certainly in acting—you really have to take whatever you can get. So I understand well how difficult it can be to be in this position where people are just not hearing what you’re trying to say or are saying. - Oscar Isaac
