I don't want a trillion-dollar empire to run.

My life before children I don't really remember. I've heard references to it, but I really don't remember.

I can have incredible self-discipline. But see, I think it's obviously a form of stupidity.

I wouldn't say anything I ever did in film would be something I'd use the word proud about. I've done better work in the theater.

The most evocative thing to me is probably when a writer and a group of performers can collectively put together something compelling that asks the really simple question: 'How do we live?'

I was a very good baseball player and football player as a kid, but my father always told me - occasionally while striking me - that I was much more interested in how I looked playing baseball or football than in actually playing. And I think there's great truth in that.

I have probably four or five male friends who have a real strong masculine side but some degree of a feminine side, too. They're pretty rare, whereas I think women with a masculine side are much less rare.
