I think people pick up on that. You use personal stuff and mix it all in - I definitely pull on that stuff in my acting.

I actually went to college with Adam Sandler. He was a dramatic actor, too!

I can't believe when you write something from within, how many people relate to it.

In real life, my son had a little injury a couple of years ago where we had moved into a new house and he put his hand through a glass window and it cut him really badly. Thank god he had surgery and repaired everything, but I remember I felt frozen I was so scared, and then I realized I was holding my hand just because his hand was hurt.

I do make a conscious effort to not repeat old patterns, instead of being like, But they don't want me! I haven't always been that way.

I definitely have loads of respect for writers and the art of writing.

Nobody knows how long you're going to have life on Earth, so you really have to work at being joyous and happy.
