I've felt like an outsider all my life. It comes from my mother, who always felt like an outsider in my father's family. She was a powerful woman, and she motivated my father.

I think doubt is a very healthy way to live.

What is so liberating about this whole business is when you see that, you know, big movies are going to come out, huge movies are going to come out, and then you see them up in Malibu in the little Triplex theater a week later, on the scratch negative, and you think...“This is show business. This is the great movie career. And it’s all finding it in the shoebox.”

My father was grounded, a very meat-and-potatoes man. He was a baker.

We are dying from overthinking. We are slowly killing ourselves by thinking about everything. Think. Think. Think. You can never trust the human mind anyway. It's a death trap.

When I was a younger actor, I was very immersed in it, very "method" and all that. Now, I don't give a hoot.

People don't always tell you what they are thinking. They just see to it that you don't advance in life.
