I become kind of obsessive about research.

Boys and girls were both created with given attributes, and given the freedom to act and react. But Adam was allowed to name all the animals, and Eve was made from Adam's rib, as a companion for him. No wonder she ate the apple, she was rebelling against a world where everything was stacked against her. She was just a prop to make Adam happy.

When I started writing after my career as an actor, I knew that that other life in the film industry would be pulled into my writing life and that people would see me not as an author but as an actor starting to write.

Reviews about film acting are very... tricky, because movies are such a collaborative thing.

I get like six or so hours of sleep a night.

The selfie is the new way to look someone right in the eye and say, 'Hello, this is me.'

The wind came in languid gusts like whispered reminders.
