I work extremely hard doing what I love, mainly to ensure that I don't have to work extremely hard doing what I hate.

You work hard with love and passion for what you do.

It’s always good to be recognized for hard work you’ve done in the years past. While you’re doing it, you don’t think of it so much. You’re just working. It’s a wonderful thing for someone to acknowledge it.

I put the pressure on myself because I love what I do.

What I appreciate the most my job is working with so many talented people with a single focus to make the best film or TV show possible.

What keeps me going is the love for the job.

There is no doubt that I work hard.

Many people work very hard at the things they do for fun.

Working hard is great when it’s motivated by passion and love and enthusiasm. But working hard when it’s motivated by deprivation is not pleasant.

Work is my joy.. .Work is my therapy, I don't know anybody who loves work as much as I do.

I have put in so much of hard work all these years, and to see those years of hard work finally bearing fruit now as me being No. 1, is very special. But with this the responsibilities are many fold as expectations keep on rising. However, I have never shied away from giving my best and I will continue to do so in the coming years.

I feel blessed, I feel fulfilled, and I feel all my hard work is there for the world to see. It means everything to me.

We not only worked hard—but we had a lot of fun doing it. We never saw the dynamics of work and fun as incompatible. If you're going to spend a large percentage of your waking hours at work, why not enjoy it?

I love to work. I passionately love to work. I love to feel my hand fit into the glove of some other character. I find a huge freedom — time stops for me. I’m not as crazy as I used to be, but I’m still a little crazy.
