I'm extremely compassionate, loving, all of those warm fuzzy things, but the outer shell doesn't project that all the time.

We all know we have a finite period of time. I just feel if I'm going to be alive, I want to be challenged - to be as immortal as possible. The path to that isn't an easy way, but it's a rewarding way.

You can't think. You just have to do things.

There's just some magic in truth and honesty and openness.

Whenever I think about movies, I always look at that art process as having the best of a lot of worlds. Because if you watch a great film, you have a musical element to it, not just on the scoring, but in the way that the shots are edited - that has music and rhythm and time.

I feel like I was writing as I was learning to talk. Writing was always a go-to form of communication.
