Medicine Quote by Sandra Oh

“I don't think I'd be a very good doctor. I have a more scattered personality. I also have a personality that's emotionally involved - that's my job (as an actor), you know what I mean? I think I might be too involved with what happens.” quote by Sandra Oh — Download Open image
