When I pass a flowering zucchini plant in a garden, my heart skips a beat.

Much the way I want to know if my food is farm-raised, or wild, or if my orange juice is fresh or from concentrate. I also believe I have the right, and we as Americans all have the right to know what's in our food.

Mornings and afternoons are my family time and I'm lucky that I can drop the kids off at school, I don't have to be at the office or anything.

I'm a lot more selective with work these days. My perfect plan is to do one movie every nine months. It would have to be a project that I found inspiring. It would also have to include other actors and a director I am inspired to work with.

I'm hard on myself, so I'm working on shifting perspective toward self-acceptance, with all my flaws and weaknesses.

The work gets more difficult as you get older. You learn more and you gather more experiences, there is deeper pain and higher highs.

Occasionally I'll come across something that's just annoying, but for the most part it's irrelevant to me.
