I like pain. I like when it lingers. It reminds a person of what they've lived through.

People lie. They use you and they lie, all the while feeding you bullshit about being loyal and never leaving you. No one can make that promise, because life is all about seasons, and seasons change.

Human eyes are the sign language of the brain. If you watch them carefully, you can see the truth played out, raw and unguarded.

Life balances itself on a precarious ledge, we can stay safe up high or propel off the edge.

We are all so broken. Pick up a person, shake them around and you'll hear the rattling of their broken pieces. Pieces our fathers broke, or our mothers, or our friends, strangers, or our loves.

I didn't eat pork either. Except bacon, of course. Everyone eats bacon.

You'll be surprised what someone is able to handle given no other choice.

One is a choice, and one is not.

There is more to loving someone than just making yourself happy. You have to want him to be happier than you are.

You can only give your heart away once, after that, everything else will chase your first love

When life kicks me, I kick it back.

When we are loving, we openly and honestly express care, affection, responsibility, respect, commitment, and trust.

I like the nice guys. I like when they show the stories, the human element behind it all.

Once you have a genuine sense of concern for others, there’s no room for cheating, bullying or exploitation.

I like the old school heavy metal bands like AC/DC and Aeromith. I like that type of music. As the director, I tried to influence the type of music the bands in the movie would play.

I travel all the time. I'm very restless you know.

There were stars. They burned my eyes.

A collection is like a dinner party. It is made up of the people you invite, but also the people you don't.

If Americans want to live the American dream, they should go to Denmark.

There is no way of telling people that they are all walking around shining like the sun.

Everything and everybody is sooner or later identified, defined, and put in perspective. The truth as always is simultaneously better and worse than what the popular myth-making has it.
