If a film is not a success, then that's just the way things are. Nothing I can do can make a difference. I have stopped worrying about it.

I was raised in Washington, DC in a household where one parent was a Republican and the other was a Democrat, so I got both sides.

I have achieved everything through either hard work or luck.

I don't want to not enjoy where I am at this very moment. So, every time I plan something the exact opposite happens. I hope that I'm always satisfied and content like I am right at this very moment.

My goal now is to remember every place I've been, only do things I love, and not say yes when I don't mean it.

I think most people have that out-of-body experience when they win the Oscar.

Once you learn how to say no, that's about the only place that you'll have control of your work and what you do.
