Carel Struycken Quotes

It was kind of tough because at that age you`re not aware of your tallness. I`m still not, really. Many times people would react to the fact that I looked different and I would think that there was something wrong with me -- that maybe one of my short buttons was undone or something.

Still, I`m glad I`ll never be typecast as a regular, everyday sort of person.
