Now if you went to someone's house to look for them, you would be a psychopath.

From what I hear, [ "Fifty Shades of Grey" ] is not a way that I feel like I need to be turned on or like a hole that needs to be filled in me.

I hate to be the person that's like, "We're doing something that's never been done before."

It was only when I started making short films in college and I was looking for girls to play the me-ish parts that I thought, Well, maybe I'm just going to try doing this myself before somebody else comes in and handles it. For a long time my acting was just a marriage of convenience between me and these characters that I was writing.

I wish that author [ E. L. James] all the success in the world. It's just not for me.

It would probably be too easy a cop out to say that just Republican males hate me. Though there's a large swath of them, for sure.

Basically, anything a sexual predator might do to woo a small suburban girl, I was trying.
