I like to challenge myself and give myself a timeline. It pushes me to be more creative and actually do these things, not just dream about them.

Even the great bad guys in cinema history, they're likable.

It's been such a group effort. When you're a new band and you have limited resources, you end up getting people that are there because they love what you do, and that's great.

Even in my darkest times I knew I had a good future ahead of me.

I have a habit of recording records very quickly - and not in a haphazardly way, not in a way where I'm not focused on details, because I'm a freak when it comes to that.

When you go in and do a cool, small character, it feels less like work and more like fun.

I had a very modest upbringing.

I think some people are on a mission to die, and I never was.

I wasn't ever good enough to be on the baseball team and that sort of stuff.

Nobody believes it, but I slept on a futon till I was 13.

But I've consistently worked for 10 years.

Be quick to resolve conflicts before they mature to become wars. The energetic crocodile was once a delicate egg!

Some of my happiest moments are the ones I spend with my husband, a few close relatives, and a handful of very good friends who know me well and like me anyway.

A woman, like a cross-eyed man, looks one way, but goes another--hence her mysteriousness.

Right now you are in a completely different reality than you were 10 seconds ago.

Nine million Americans a year, that we know of, struggle with infertility.

Sensuality not only debases both body and mind, but dulls the keen edge of pleasure.

Hard cases, it is said, make bad law.

That which has no limitations, has no form.

The idea that language can be recombined to create new forms, new things, is of course very old in poetry.

I know everyone is busy in life and for them to take out the time to still think about me and send me a card or a letter, that really meant the world to me. I'm grateful for that.
