Craig Sheffer (on low self-esteem): I think it's real easy to look at what's out there and get discouraged. I was never the best-looking guy, I was never the Tom Cruise-looking guy. I think the biggest thing I can say is don't compare yourself. Focus on making you the best you you can be as an actor and follow your own path. You can't compare an apple to an orange. It will cause a lot of self-esteem issues.
Craig Sheffer: Certain places have certain types of energy. I literally get panic attacks when I go to Hollywood if I'm not in and out of there. The energy there just doesn't fit my soul.
