I just keep working on things I like, and hope for the best. I hope people enjoy them.

Everybodys constantly being destroyed and rebuilding themselves, some more drastically than others.

Everything that happens on Wall Street only fortifies my opinion that there is in fact a more ludicrous industry than the entertainment industry.

Let's point out the elephant in the room: Actor bands are not notoriously successful enterprises. I can't think of any.

Design is the fundamental creative activity with which we direct our lives, and collectively, the earth's transformation from its original, natural state into our human-made world.

I started acting because I was miserable and crazy and wanted to be someone else, to run around and scream in front of people without getting in trouble.

Plenty of people are onto the emptiness but it takes real guts to see the hopelessness.

That's the great secret of humans: we're all the same person. The best thing to do is just go for the hug.

When you put your costume on and you get your hair and your makeup done [for a role] and you stare in the mirror you feel like a different person.

There are certain ways of being that people don't find acceptable or very pleasant in regular life, but you go out on stage and do pretty much the same thing and they find it spellbinding.

I'm still a really shitty programmer, but I know enough to hack a prototype together.

Bread is like dressed, hats and shoes - in other words, essential!

Do you call the jewel blind, because your eye is?

I just can't - I can't exist in normal group situations. A classroom, where you have to sort of jockey for position, compete for attention - I would just withdraw.

Acting makes me feel vulnerable. Especially depending on the type of emotion I'm portraying in a scene.

I know a lot of cowboys and I've done a little work on ranches with cattle, and those people become your friends, and keep their word.
