Making a movie is like a stagecoach ride through the Old West: at first you wish for a pleasant trip, and after a while you just hope you reach your destination.

I can't describe it, what I'm feeling and what I'm thinking. This means something. This is important.

I quit college so fast I didn't even clean out my locker.

I would lose myself too much if I thought of myself as the audience.

I get that same queasy, nervous, thrilling feeling every time I go to work. That's never worn off since I was 12 years-old with my dad's 8-millimeter movie camera.

When I felt like an outsider, movies made me feel inside my own skill set.

All I have to do is pose for a picture and I'm getting married to the person standing next to me.
