I'd always need a creative outlet. But sometimes, I do fantasize what my life would be like if I weren't famous.

I'd like to be Dakota Fanning when I get young.

I don't have a burning desire to act strangely enough. I don't know that if I hadn't been an actor as a young person, I don't know that I ever would have chosen this because it's not really my personality.

As time goes on, I will play characters who get older: I don't want to be some Botoxed weirdo.

I feel at various times in my life that I've been at a point where I had to choose between a death sentence and a life sentence. And I want to live. What do I do to live? What do I do to be vital? And the answer is always creativity.

All the movies that I make in some ways have to be the story of my life. There are different chapters in my life.

Look, it's terrible, I know, but weakness really, really bugs me, to the point that if there is a wounded bird on the sidewalk, I look at it and I go: I think I'll just kick it.
