We judge people by their appearance so quickly, and we form opinions about people, compartmentalize people, and think we know who they are. But if you sit down and talk with someone for more than 10 minutes, you'll find something in common, no doubt whatsoever.

I just love going out and listening to people. People can teach us a lot.

Good drama is all about creating conflict.

It's not what happens in life, it's how you react to what happens in life.

There are so many issues that this country [the U.S.] has, and that the world faces, that it's important that we sit down and recognize our commonality. When we do that, we can actually work together to overcome some of the problems that we have. That, to me, is just a good starting place.

Real people are what fascinates me, whether it's from an acting point of view or a directing point of view.
