I pretty much left full-time, formal education when I was 11. So that was when I was taken out of the school system... I think the longest stretch I would go back for was a term and a half when I was about 14.

There's no shame in enjoying a quiet life. And that's been the realization of the past few years for me.

I meet hundreds of people, and I'm not going to remember them. But every single one of them will remember their interaction with me.

Who are the executives, and what are the stories that are being released? Not just in movie theaters but online. When you watch Master of None, you're like, yes, this is real life to me. These are refreshing types of stories.

There were a few years there when I was just so enamored with the idea of living some sort of famous person's lifestyle that really isn't suited to me.

People tell me I look mournful. They say, "Cheer up, Dan, it's not that bad!" Sometimes, I just look into space, which freaks people out. If I was ever required to do anything other than look haunted, I could. I'm a happy person.

I met Elijah Wood once, I met Peter Jackson, I met Orlando Bloom, and they're all really cool.
