If you're born with a gift, to behave like it's an achievement is not right.

I loathed every day and regret every day I spent in school. I like to be taught to read and write and add and then be left alone.

You know what my philosophy of life is? That it’s important to have some laughs, but you got to suffer a little too, because otherwise you miss the whole point to life.

You'll find as you go through life that great depth and smoldering sensuality don't always win.

Geez, I should stop ruining my life searching for answers I'm never gonna get, and just enjoy it while it lasts.

When you write the script, you're home in a room by yourself, and you're writing, and there's no connection with the real performing world. So you get a lot of things wrong and make a lot of mistakes and make a lot of bad choices.

Some of the best memories of my childhood that I have are the times that I played hooky from school so I could spend my days in the public library reading all the wonderful books at my disposal.
