After seeing 'Big,' I wanted an elevator that opened directly into my apartment, just like Tom Hanks did.

People still recognize me all the time on the street. The first thing they say when they stop me is, "Where have you been?" The second comment they make is always, "Oh, you've grown up."

I write a good amount. I've been gathering up a backlog of stuff and maybe I'll do something with it someday, but I don't want to talk about it just yet because that would jinx it.

I had all the fame anyone could want, and I ran away from it.

I am a collection of thoughts and memories and likes and dislikes. I am the things that have happened to me and the sum of everything I've ever done. I am the clothes I wear on my back. I am every place and every person and every object I have ever come across. I am a bag of bones stuck to a very large rock spinning a thousand miles an hour.

I have a lot of growing up to do, or a lot of growing down. I think that's probably more appropriate.

I hope I'm remembered as the king of the world, the noble man who united all the nations of the earth. But that probably won't happen.
