Whenever I've been in rehearsals, it's really fun, there's always laughing.

My work is always more emotional than I am. My characters say things to each other that I get accused of not being able to say to my girlfriend.

You have to escape to survive, as you must survive to escape.

I've never really felt that I've had the right hair cut, or had the right clothes.

We only have so much time.... Time will kill you – it really will.

I think auditioning can be very reductive and I just hate how actors work really hard and most of them aren't going to get the job, and I hate putting them through that.

I don't know where the characters are going to go or what's going to happen. I know that something inevitable will happen. I know that they want certain things and they're in a certain room and they smell like this and they look like that. More often than not, an entropy creeps in that strangles me, and then the inevitable happens. I don't know if I have the ability to write an ending like My Fair Lady's, when everyone gets what they want after a few minor conflicts. If I tried to write that it would just be false. Or I'd have someone enter with a machine gun.
