I have given money to the Obama campaign online and now they bombard me with emails every day. Why did I do that online? Why didn't I just walk into an office?

Human behavior is so intriguing. I find myself giving thumbs up signs all the time. I know I look like an absolute dork, but I do it anyway.

The decisions that Ellen made on her show were between her and her producers. I supported her decisions. I was there to hug her when she got home.

I told my mother at about the seventh year of therapy that I had been abused sexually by my father and she hung up the phone on me.

And for anyone who ever thought that Ellen and I broke it off because of sexuality, you couldn't be more mistaken. And for anyone who thought my mother's prayers had anything to do with me marrying a man, forget it.

I think it takes an introspective person to want to go into the theater and see the dark side of themselves.

It's always a challenge to make an independent film. It's always a challenge to make a low budget film.
