I'm not drawn to stories that are just sort of fluffy. I'm just not, and I've tried to, and as a kid I was never drawn to them. I always chose complicated.

I'm spontaneous. I jump in. I kind of like getting married and then getting to know each other; I know that it sounds incredibly strange, but to me, it's a more natural process.

My path was to be an actor and it’s been very good to me in life. It’s broadened my horizons and given me a lot of gifts.

The power of work, and the power of creativity can be your salvation.

The more you love, the more you crave.

You've got to find your bliss as a human being, because if you can follow that, everything else falls into place.

I credit literature for the reason I act because that was the door to me saying, ‘Oh! I can be somebody else. I can exist as someone else.’
