My favorite parts of work as an actor and a director are those unplanned mistakes that do happen, because it's like catching lightning in a bottle. It's the best part of what we do.

Dogs are the broccaflower of the animal kingdom.

I don't believe in a conspiracy to hide the existence of extraterrestrial life.

I feel I have to work hard to nurture whatever talent I have as an actor. I feel like it's not natural to me. So I don't take it for granted... What I think is my natural ability - which is writing - I think I totally take that for granted.

I don't know how anybody gets better at anything aside from doing it.

It seems unlikely that we're alone in the universe. But I'm pretty sure nobody's hiding any contact.

In high school and college, I was an athlete.
