Better Quote by Paul Walter Hauser
“In my daily life, I'm always struggling to be a better adult, to come to terms with reality. To show up on set for five or six hours and be completely out of touch with reality, or a piece of it, is fun in some sick way that I'm sure a therapist would have a lot of fun deconstructing.”
