Enjoy your work Quote by Mena Suvari
“I don't go into things by how are they going to do, it's more about if I'm going to enjoy myself. That's the most important thing I think, you should enjoy your work. Because if you're not, what's the point? You should have fun with it. That's just the attitude that I take. You know, love the story, it's different, maybe if I'm saying something.”
