I think of marriage as a garden. You have to tend to it. Respect it, take care of it, feed it. Make sure everyone is getting the right amount of, um, sunlight.

The problem to me is violence. It's not cool to kill somebody or hurt people.

I always like having kid energy around. I think it's good for a movie, even when you're doing dramatic stuff.

I like to think the movies that I've picked have something worthwhile to say. Something relevant.

I got into acting because I wanted to act and I love acting. That's my true north: to be creative and to be challenged in what I love to do.

The working-class folks and the poor, and those normal people living their lives out in the world without the glitter and the fanfare. There is a lot to learn from them.

Also, stick around. Don't lose your heart, just keep going, keep at it.
