Acting's difficult for me because I think you have to be passionately involved in what you're doing.

Directing is a really kind of amazing thing, because you're helping others and, in the middle of that, you have to worry about yourself.

Don't let people treat you like a cigarette, they only use you when they're bored and step on you when they're done. Be like drugs, let them die for you.

Sometimes I have a great day of filming and sometimes the theater strikes me better. It just depends.

Learning how to die is therefore learning how to live.

I try not to plan that too much.

I would definitely say pleasure is not happiness. Because I think I kill pleasure. Like I take too much of it in, and therefore make it un-pleasurable, like too much coffee, and you're miserable.
