There is no pleasure that I haven't actually made myself sick on.

I didn't have any idea that I would be able to have a career in film.

I don't want to repeat myself. I'm not going to play a guy like Allen in Happiness again any time soon because I did that and I don't want to tarnish or dilute that film by doing it again, maybe less well.

Well, in the theater, I think you're actually more responsible for what is going on onstage as a director than you are in film.

Ultimately, I think writing is a mixture of craft, inspiration, and being incredibly, courageously explorative with yourself - and being brutally honest, too.

You know the circus performer who spins the plates in the air you know, and he'll spin six or seven plates in the air? Acting sometimes is kind of that guy spinning all those plates in the air but in your head and in your body.

My soul is in good shape.
