What I love about writing is the contradictions we all embody as human beings.

There are very few guys like me. I make a lot of money. I didn't always.

We think we know what's right. With excessive pride comes blindness.

I like to write about things about which I have no answers, questions that trouble me. These things trouble me.

Every 10 years, I know less about love and relationships. The smarter I get, the less I know.

I don't think it's the job of filmmakers to give anybody answers. I do think, though, that a good film makes you ask questions of yourself as you leave the theatre.

When we're threatened, it's very easy to appeal to our basic natures.
