Acting is a weird profession. It's very disquieting, and at the time it just made me so confused. It's only when you step away from a movie for several weeks or months that you start to put things in perspective.

I write plays instinctively. I don't like writing movie scripts.

I feel equal parts lucky and scared anytime I get a job.

I always think the second worst thing in the world is to go on stage at night, and the first worst thing in the world is sitting at home at night. For me, it's scarier to not be doing it than doing it.

The movies that are really big, at least in my experience, oftentimes don't have characters that I feel as personally connected to.

When cellphones came out, my girlfriend refused to get one for five years, because she thought it would turn her into somebody who couldn't connect with other people - and, of course, she got a cellphone.

When you're on set you don't realize the way something is going to look since you're on the other side of the camera.
