I was kind of scared of failing at acting.

When I went to film school about three years ago, the first two years you're required to make a series of short films. I started making films based on short poems.

I actually don't smoke weed, but I've played a lot of stoners - especially with Seth Rogen.

I personally just love movies about the creative process.

Create your world around your work. Create your work around your life. Let other people help you shape it.

You are successful if you are able to work on the kind of material that you want to - if your life conforms to your dreams, regardless of outside acceptance or acclaim.

You say I sucked at the Oscars. I was a genius at the Oscars. That was experimental tuxedo sleep art.
