I didn't learn to swim until I was 21 or something because I grew up in the mountains in Wyoming and all the water is glacier runoff and cold.

Water. Like a blanket. Dark. Intoxicating. Cold.

I swim laps, which is nice because I'm weightless in the water.

Nowadays, very few children actually learn to swim. Instead, they learn to play in the water.

It gets cold in the desert at night, particularly up in the mountains; the stars hammer on the rock and strike frost.

A lot of the time I hate acting. It has a lot to do with the way I was brought up in a world where showing your emotions is frowned upon. It's just not manly. I don't do anything in life because I love doing it. It's because I want to be good at it.
