Ambiguity is something that I really respond to. I like the complexity of it.

What is it with you people? You think not getting caught in a lie is the same thing as telling the truth?

I didn’t want the attacks to affect me. I don’t believe you should be led by fear.

I don't think about when it's going to stop and what you do before it stops. You just keep moving.

I'm not that interested in someone that one-dimensional, but I'm interested in playing somebody that's more complicated.

There's a lot of hyperventilation that takes off before the [Sundance Film] Festival, a lot of buzz. Every year we hear, this is going to be the new this, this is going to be the new that, and it never is. The buzz just doesn't mean anything. I'm glad it doesn't. Because I think the festival shows that what succeeds is content.

Television tells us only the things it wants to. It still feeds us heroes, it still offers villains. And even though we know better than to always trust it, we still watch.
