I like the idea of building this wandering, epic narrative in a form that people don't expect epic narratives to appear.

That honeymoon phase is so much fun in real life, when you meet and discover somebody new and fall in love and chase them. The pursuit. And that climactic final moment of ultimate togetherness.

Ninety percent of the time, I'm wearing imaginary people's clothing. I don't feel a huge pressure to go out and like, hit the town, hit the boutiques.

It's ridiculous. My life's been a series of happy accidents.

I'm certainly not a trained singer. The only place I could probably carry a tune is my shower.

I'm a young actor and I haven't learned everything there is about acting.

I think that's part of the fun of being an actor - you get to not be normal all of the time.

I rarely accept things on blind faith, especially the orthodoxy of any given practice, or any given practicum. I'm like, "Oh come on. Is this the way to do things?"

Yes, I want kids. I don't know that I'll ever be ready. But, I'll certainly want them. I'll have them regardless of whether I am ready, I think. I just don't have a timeframe on it yet.

Your own shoes are hard enough to fill, but somebody else's are even tougher.

We have now learned that rashness and imprudence will not be deterred from taking credit; let us try whether fraud and avarice may be more easily restrained from giving it.

I love working quickly. I don't like to do thousands of takes, and I don't want to do thousands of set ups.

If fate means you to lose, give him a good fight anyhow.

All I'm being offered now are parts that are authority figures. I've done that. And that's not what I want. I want something different.
