They tell you to be careful because maybe you don't want to meet your heroes. I've met pretty much every one, and I've never been let down.

I think when you are young, you are hoping that this person will be the right one. The one you are going to be in love with forever, but sometimes you want that so much, you create something that isn't really there.

When I got the job, I was sure that I wasn't going to get the job because Tom Cruise almost got the job.

I'd rather fight a buzzsaw than dance.

If I can avoid the mirror when I brush my teeth in the morning, I will. I find security and safety in the most profound degree of ignorance. If you can just stay ignorant of almost everything you'll be OK. It's fine to stay informed and look at things, but to judge things will bog you down.

I really love the experience of moving things around, in terms of being a director.

You don't have to underestimate your audience anymore. They'd actually like to laugh a little bit. So, the character came to me and once it's got its grips in you, there's nowhere to go.
