If you're going to be alive and on this planet, you have to, like, suck the marrow out of every day and get the most out of it.

I can cook about two things. I can boil hot water for the only pasta I can make.

The stories that I want to tell, especially as a director, don't necessarily have a perfect ending because, the older you get, the more you appreciate a good day versus a happy ending. You understand that life continues on the next day; the reality of things is what happens tomorrow.

At 35, I'm definitely starting to feel more like a grown-up than I ever have. There's nothing in my life that is childish or whimsical. Having fun is fantastic and I never want to lose a sense of that - and also, I think, you have to have that to put into your work or else it's going to feel stiff.

Don't show your flaws.

As I've gotten older, I've really wanted to find more balance and calm.

My whole life, I've wanted to feel comfortable in my skin. It's the most liberating thing in the world.
