I like army boots, I like peasant skirts - sometimes together! So I do know that I have odd taste.

Let’s reserve judgment for people who beat their children, sell their daughters into prostitution, or deny women the right to make decisions about their bodies and their lives.

I came to parenting the way most of us do - knowing nothing and trying to learn everything.

I don’t want to say everything happens for a reason, but every day is lined up right next to the other one for a reason. The best you can do is do each day well with kindness and as a good person.

Auditions are hard. You should see what most of the women look like when I audition for things - they look like they should be on the catwalk.

I think neuroscience is obviously very esoteric, but I think there are aspects of it that can absolutely be brought down to the level of an interested 11-, 12-, 13-year-old easily.

A computer would deserve to be called intelligent if it could deceive a human into believing that it was human.

The beginnings of all things are small.

It doesn't matter what you've done, but what you're going to do the next game, and that's what I'm focused on.

I actually go to church. I know it's hard for you to believe. It's only because you know that Jesus on the cross? I love his smooth hairless body.

Our government denies that terrorism is caused by Islamic doctrine. Now, that is true, and it is a declarative statement. It's not arguable.

The state, the state apparatus, is not an abstraction.

I suspect there isn't an actor alive who was able to truthfully answer his family's questions after his first day's activity in his future profession.

And makes me poor indeed.
