I want to put a ding in the universe.
My own dreams fortunately came true in this great state. I became Mr. Universe; I became a successful businessman. And even though some people say I still speak with a slight accent, I have reached the top of the acting profession.

So, I've heard all the 'it's impossible' thing but I didn't pay any attention because I believed that I could do it.
