Falling in love is a completely transcendent experience. It's like eating pizza-flavored ice cream

There is no such thing as #1 in art.

Sometimes, when you want to be in a place so badly, you'll do anything.

I was made to believe that my life was going to be fixed and it wasn't. I'm still the same loser who had flown to Los Angeles on my sister's frequent flier miles just six days before.

I feel like everyone wants to make a movie that they feel passionate about watching.

I think if anything, the fact that it's popular right now makes me go: "Well, I guess I'm going to start doing something else then in the next few years." I dunno, it almost feels hackneyed at this point. To start a premise by saying, "I did this awkward thing." But then again, awkwardness and feeling alienated are always going to be a part of comedy. Alienation, I suppose, can't be hackneyed because it will always exist.

Backup dancers are completely respectable. They're the studio musicians of dance.
