I did actually sit down with a blank sheet of paper once. I think the phone rang and that was the end of my literary career.

I'm not a financial expert. The Robin Hood tax seems to me a very simple and beautiful idea. I don't see the problem.

I generally do things I'm proud to be in and generally I'm in things people like.

When a movie is called 'searingly honest,' it's almost invariably grim and demonstrates how bad things can get.

The phenomenon of vampires has always appealed to me. Everyone kind of likes a vampire story because it almost could be true.

When you are in something that you're proud of and it's funny and it's a good night out and all of those things, there's nothing quite like it. The rewards are proportionate to the amount of alarm and distress it causes you.

I'm one of those weird people who doesn't even own a computer.
