It's a thrill to be a fan amongst fans.

It's a trap I've fallen into earlier in my career - trying to be liked. Don't do it. When I watch TV and I see someone trying to make me like them, acting cute or quirky or goofy, I'm not impressed. Don't act like America's watching you. Just latch onto your character. Characters are flawed. Be unlikeable. Be flawed. Be a person.

I would cancel dialysis to be in the [hopefully upcoming Firefly] movie.

I think it's a dance that people want to see. It's a chemistry that people want to see. In the same way that people don't want to see a perfect hero with no flaws who can handle anything, people don't want to see a perfect relationship. There's nothing interesting about that. People want to see you fail.

The trick is, when you grow up, find work that feels like play.

I like doing things where I can get dirty, work with my hands, and use power tools. Last weekend, I did some grouting.

My brain is like a hard drive. Once you start adding new information, you start cutting off old information.
