Gosh, I couldn't even talk right until I was about 6 years old or something like that.

I don't even get an allowance.

I went to high school, which was a good thing because I hadn't interacted with many people my age, and I didn't really have friends. I had a million acquaintances and no friends.

I'm not one of those actors who needs the media spotlight all the time to feel gratified. I'm happy to do one project a year and take the rest of the year off as long as that project is special.

I'm not one of those people who needs that gratification of doing, like, 10 films a year.

I'm not expecting the American literary community to welcome me with open arms. To them I'm just some schmuck kid who wrote some book.

I'd made enough made money by the time I was 12 to never work again, so it's not about a big pay check with me.
