I have tons of regrets, but I think that's one of the reasons that push people to create things. Out of their angst, their regret, comes the best from artists, painters and writers.

The more I go to church and the more I turn myself over to the process of believing in Jesus and listening to His Word and having Him guide my hand, I feel as though the pressure is off me now.

All young men want to prove themselves.

If you come into my house, I'm going to fight much more viciously to get you out than if we were on a neutral piece of land.

I think I'm a much better painter than an actor.

To me, the most perfect screenplay ever written will be one word, when you finally reduce it down to that. Until then, writing will be an imperfect form of communication.

Sometimes I write with music on, and if I'm in a good flow, I don't even hear it.
