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 would do anything to be anywhere in the vicinity of Eckhart Tolle.

I'm not a bible thumper, I'm not any of that stuff, but I do believe that the force is with us.

I'm so wrapped up in my work that it's often impossible to consider other things in my life. My marriage ended in divorce because of this, my relationship with Holly has suffered by this.

I don't ever want to stick myself in one category. I do really love making movies, but the thing about live performances is you don't have to wait around. Literally, we're still waiting to see what the reaction is to the film, so it's a slower process. But it is enjoyable.

Flowers don't worry about how they're going to bloom. They just open up & turn toward the light & that makes them beautiful.

I expected that most of my career would be in dramatic acting. My hero was James Dean.
