New York has got this sort of wonderful romantic idea of the South

I want to be so strong as an actor that people wouldn't say... eh, that's Josh Lucas

My instincts are not comedic.

When I was on that boat, I realized the only way I would feel creatively challenged was if I totally changed everything about my environment and put myself in a storm, in a sense.

I was making choices that were very specific: Make a living, take care of your family, and if you can, find some movies that you can sink your teeth into.

I visited those friends who'd just had a baby, and she was washing dishes and he was cleaning the house, and I burst with happiness. And in their minds, they were in this terrible domestic rut

I had friends of mine tell me they had a baby, and I didn't even know they were pregnant.
