I love acting with all my heart and I love music with all my heart.

Life is magical and I guess my thing is I wish that people wanted that magic.

Now the idea in the movie world is to make things the same. And in the TV world, the idea is to do something different, so... that's why I'm here!

I quit flying years ago. I don't want to die with tourists.

We didn't have a movie theatre until I was about nine, so I just didn't see them. But, once I got into movies I loved them.

I'm really influenced by Southern novelists, not many movie people. More like John Faulkner, William Faulkner, Erskine Caldwell, Flannery O'Connor, John Steinbeck, and people like that.

The ones that work out really and ones that become something to the audience, those are the most important people.
