I've had moments in my life where it was all out on the table. Everything I had. I'm okay with that, because I had a strong belief that what I was doing other people could believe in it, too, if I can get it just right.

I'm a pretty convenient foil for a lot of people.

The truth is, I just want do things that are original and throw an original spin on them.

I was always listening to my father more than anyone. I was always afraid of my father more than anyone. But there's a moment in time where other men in your life can have a huge impact.

Conventional wisdom can get us into so much trouble, especially as artists.

I've always been distracted when somebody is coming after me and saying, "You're the only person who can play this part."

I'm a big fan of dreams. Unfortunately, dreams are our first casualty in life - people seem to give them up, quicker than anything, for a 'reality.'
