To the bone, knowing what you are meant to do

One of my favorite quotes–can’t find it credited online but I saw Ed Harris say it in a TV interview, so it’s a bit mangled from memory–is that when someone asked him about his choice to become an actor he said, “I didn’t have a choice, I had no choice, I had to act.” I always think about that statement; I think it separates those that give up and those that have no choice but to keep going for it (a.k.a. to the bone, knowing what you are meant to do).
