Charlie: why does it need courage?
Ryan: Well. I don’t know if this is true with everyone, but it seems as if most artists that I’ve met are incredibly shy or were. And it’s almost like that they do the most opposite thing, they become entertainers or performers. It’s like a self-challenge or something.
