People think my work is therapeutic. I don't see it that way. It's not like I'm saving money from a weekly therapy visit by writing down my life.

Everyone has a little bit of Howard and Chad in them. I think there's Christine in all men as well.

Everybody has the ability to be manipulative, to be hateful and deceitful.

Relationships in general make people a bit nervous. It's about trust. Do I trust you enough to go there?

I was very careful to cast guys who were very good-looking and very fit and who had a certain sense of privilege about them, because with that sense of privilege comes contempt.

In a relationship you have to open yourself up.

And I've got some screenplays and plays ready to dip into when I need to.
