Really, contrary to popular belief, I like to have a good time and not take myself too seriously.

Every man goes through a period of thinking they're attracted to another guy.

Not to say that you should be constantly trying to change the world, but I think it's important to know that whatever we do has an implication and has an effect, and because of that it is political.

I think that we all have within us the potential for almost anything. If we play close attention to our lives, then we can get at it somehow.

I don't think I'm sharp enough to not prepare and come on set and kill it.

I could draw ideas. I remember writing a paper for a seminar class. I remember writing a paper about - and this is going to sound really sort of pretentious, but that's where my mind was at the time - how acting and the performing artist can really be like a Bodhisattva, how they can communicate ultimately an idea in a way that can move and shift things. And that was wonderful. I didn't know many classes where I could try and relate the thing that I really loved and wanted to do into an intellectual idea, and that happened to be one of them.

When I was young, before school, my father would wake me up and we would go running together. A love of being physical, being active and being outside was something he instilled in me.
