Wow, you gotta hear what Matthew Perry says. Watch until the end.
For the first time in my life, I knelt down and prayed, and that prayer was, please God, make me famous. You can do anything you want to me, just make me famous. 3 weeks later, I got Friends, and God did not forget about the second part. I mean, I, I had the American dream happen to me. I got the great job. I was good at it. I had a— I bought a house. I— the house had a pool, and I really, really liked it, loved it for about 6 months. And then I walked in my house and went, oh man, this is not fixing this problem that I have. Then deep into addiction, there was a more— much more real prayer, you know, to save my life, you know. And that was answered as well.
