Yeah, I know I should be fighting for gay rights, but who wants to join the army or get married anyway?

I make independent movies. I don't know how to do anything else. I don't know any other job that I could really get.

I want to be harder to reach, not easier.

It took me a while to figure it out, but to have a real hit on Broadway, you have to get the respected Broadway people to like it. But then the production also has to appeal to the most middle-class people who know nothing about Broadway and who come to see it later.

Baltimore never changes much. People aren't impressed by anything. It's great; it's not a trendy town.

I always say you need something weird on your face and some good shoes and nobody looks in the middle.

I pride myself on the fact that my work has no socially redeeming value.
