When you are a kid, you need to have something to do. This will keep you off the streets.

Humor is not debatable. It's like sex. Either you're aroused or you're not. Nobody can reason you around to their point of view.

Acting is divine dissatisfaction. It's the greatest thing in the world to do, but you are never satisfied with it ever.

I like challenges and I don't believe in failure. I don't believe in regrets. I believe suffering, failure - all those concepts - are things that are absolutely necessary to make us the best people that we can be, the best at whatever we want to do.

Like most Catholic boys, I wanted to be Jesus Christ. I could never get the turn-the-other-cheek thing down, though.

I know this sounds strange, but as a kid, I was really shy. Painfully shy. The turning point was freshman year, when I was the biggest geek alive. No one, I mean no one, even talked to me.

I think I could go away tomorrow. I've already accomplished something. It's such a selfish business that sometimes I get sick of myself.
