I thought I wanted to be a journalist or a novelist.

I just hope that I continue to keep a line between my private life and who I play, even if they are closely intertwined, and so I'm careful. I don't even know where my line is, but I know I have a line.

I think if you feel like you were born to write, then you probably were.

But I want to tell my stories, more than that, I have to in order to stay sane.

I seriously consider television to be the people's medium. Like the idea of seeing your parents naked or having somebody go down on you and worrying about whether you smell, or worrying about whether your body is weird or what goes across the face of a person who's supposed to be experiencing pleasure but isn't - those are things I'd love to normalize on TV.

You don't need to be flamboyant in your life to be flamboyant in your work.

I have an authority problem.
