It's not easy trying to navigate your internal world in the public eye.

I grew up in Manhattan, and I've always had all kinds of people around me. I've always had a very 'live and let live' point of view.

Sometimes the things that come out of my mouth are mortifying.

Life is a wildly transient thing with people coming into your life and dropping away. It definitely takes work to maintain relationships.

When I was a young person working, everybody was older than me, so I had to kind of keep up. I'd see every movie and listen to everything played, and read all the relevant books. Being an actor, it's kind of your job to know what came before you and how big your feelings are allowed to be.

As a rule people don't think other people on drugs are funny. They think they are tragic. They have a point, but I still had the funny.

The world at large doesn't always make sense to me, and there are safe havens. Linda Manz in 'Out of the Blue' is one of them.
