I have very few friends. I have a handful of close friends, and I have my family, and I haven't known life to be any happier.

We still check in with each other. She was a big part of my life, and me hers. I don't see how there cannot be [that]. That's life, man. That's life.

We had a work session [in "Moneyball"] where about 30 scouts came in and we're all riffing. And after it, [director] Bennett Miller said: Look at these faces and this is what we have to got to do. We got to get these guys in the scene.

My happiest moment is the day they call wrap and I'm free. I'm not looking back.
