But, I don't know, the violence, I can't even talk about. We don't do a lot of violent shows. When I started in television, breaking a pencil was a violent act.

I love my wife, she deserves anything and everything.

I think there are two ways to depict a family. One is what it's really like, and one is what the audience would like it to be. Between you and me, I think the second one is what I would prefer.

I'm not an inspirational quote kind of person.

I don't think that digital photography is romantic yet. It's not sympathetic the way that film is.

An inner process stands in need of outward criteria.

If you're really on some heavily addictive drug, you think about the drug, and everything else is secondary. You try and make everything work, but the drug comes first.
