I'm a calm person who wants to talk about things and think things through.

Innately, there are qualities in human beings that are always repetitive. There are things like love and hate and jealousy that are just going to be there forever.

I read an interview with Mark Wahlberg, and he was like, ‘I might read a script and love it, but it’s all about the filmmaker.’ I think that’s a good lesson for me.

I think writing is such a great talent, and if I was better I would love to be a writer.

I like books that are funny, but that aren't trying to be funny. I like situational humor.

I try to create as many circumstances outside of set that help me fall into character when I get onto set.

To sit down at a computer every day and write a script is commendable. I don't have the patience for it, but I have some fantastic ideas.

People make up rumors and put them on the Internet.

Wisdom is the mind’s currency.

You are never so lost that your angels cannot find you.

If I had a sense of humor, I'd be laughing right now.

There is a courageous wisdom; there is also a false, reptile prudence, the result not of caution but of fear.

A little thought is sexton to all the world.

If the people we love are stolen from us, the way to have them live on is to never stop loving them.

Faith is not imparted like secular subjects. It is given through the language of the heart.

Be as useful as a tree! Give life to others; be shelter to everyone; grant fruits to all! Be good like a tree!

There are times when even justice brings harm with it.

Eyes lie if you ever look into them for the character of the person.
