Acting Quote by Chloe Grace Moretz

“I'm only 13, so I can't say "life experiences." So, basically, I had to... act! I had to make up character that is very old. I guess that's why they call it acting - you do draw from some stuff in your life, I guess, but it's not real life. You have to fake it.” quote by Chloe Grace Moretz
