There is a fetishization of victimization in our culture. And I just am not interested in victimhood.

The difference between film and TV is the pace. You don't have the leisure of time in television.

Sometimes I feel like I'm seeing it all at once and it's too much. My heart fills up like a balloon that's about to burst.

I'm from the South, so while I personally find it impossible to live there, I still have a fondness for it as a geographical region.

I am so spoiled. I cannot watch a show where it gets interrupted for ads. I have to TiVo it and skip through the ads, because the culture of advertising is so false and phony that I just... ugh, you know?

Never underestimate the power of denial.

I think it's very difficult, and it requires a tremendous amount of spiritual integrity and discipline, to not be a narcissist in a culture that encourages it every step of the way.
