Hollywood actor Rick Hoffman is well-known for playing Louis Litt, Mike Ross's therapist in the hit television show "Suits." He has worked with a variety of actors and seen a broad spectrum of personalities during his more than 14-year career. During an interview, Rick offered his perspectives on the personalities of those working in the entertainment sector.
Hoffman talks openly about how some coworkers may be exceptionally gifted but difficult to get along with. He has little sympathy for these people when they struggle or experience career setbacks. This sentiment reflects a more general view of human interactions: people who are sincere and kind are easy to root for and support.
Hoffman, on the other hand, thinks highly of actors like Rachael Harris. He thinks that someone with her upbeat attitude should be honored for her dedication and contributions to the field. Hoffman suggests that he supports runners (actors) whose personal attributes make them worthy of winning a race, using the analogy of cheering for a runner.
When making judgments about someone's success or well-being, the quote emphasizes the value of character and integrity over mere skill or notoriety.
