It's hard to find scripts that know what they are from page one to page 115.

My whole life, Ive wanted things before I was ready. I was always pushing for the next job, the next success. I was so focused on achieving and the path that I was missing some great point about life.

Approaching a part or thinking about taking a part, I never think, 'Is that person like me?'

I've turned down jobs because I've said, 'Honestly, I can't find my way in. I can't do it. I love you, as a director. I think the script is good. You deserve better than I think I can do.'

I think people still have a need for miracles. Science keeps telling them there's no life on Mars, there's no God, nothing's trailing Hale-Bopp, those people are just dead in their Nikes. But they want to believe in something.

I also watch a lot of really bad television when I'm writing, "Like Dancing With the Stars," with my daughter.

A dream is the mind's way of answering a question it hasn't yet figured out how to ask.
