As far as kids go, at an early age they have to develop a sense of individuality. It's just something that everyone goes through. But I think the older I get, the more I appreciate the fact that we really are just so connected.

The better you know yourself, the better your relationship with the rest of the world.

We're all really happy with what's familiar. But what's inevitable in life is change. That's what life is.

People are so fearful about opening themselves up. All you want to do is to be able to connect with other people. When you connect with other people, you connect with something in yourself. It makes you feel happy. And yet it's so scary, it makes people feel vulnerable and unsafe.

I'm very happy with my lot. I like the variety I get. You don't want to spend your life repeating yourself. It's true of any kind of artist, you want to explore as wide and far as you can go, so that's what I've been trying to do.

I don't try to live the life of my character but I think it's inevitable that there is some carry-over into your life.

I don't mind where I work, it's really nice to be able to travel around and taste the flavours of different countries.
