"I grew up in Oklahoma, and I feel……" — James Marsden
"I grew up in Oklahoma, and I feel really grateful for that, because it's given me a perspective on this business that I don't know if I would have had if I'd been raised even in Los Angeles. And that is the fact that it can go away at any second...you're so lucky to be doing what you love to do and to be making a living at it. So I don't know any other way to be, really. It would be an effort for me to be a difficult, egotistical actor....I enjoy it too much; that's what people think is down-to-earth, I guess."
